Siren Publishing enters the bidding...

for the Triskelion contracts to be held in the public auction on Thursday, November 15th at 10:00 a.m. MST.

If Siren wins the bid, we will make an official announcement at the end of the auction to return all rights to the authors to be effective immediately, unencumbered and unconditional. Triskelion authors will be free on that day to do whatever they wish with their books.

Our bidding is a goodwill gesture to demonstrate Siren's commitment to authors who choose to e-publish. There are likely more bankruptcy proceedings ahead in this industry where the barrier to entry is low and where anybody can start an e-publishing company with no business experience and with practically nothing in the bank. This shakeout will continue to create more grief for authors and give reputable e-publishers as well as the whole industry a bad name.

In part, our bidding is a business decision to promote and advertise Siren as a solid publishing company. Operating a company requires business experience, industry knowledge, a long-term business plan, financial stability, and the owner's willingness to reinvest in the company.

We wish the very best to the Triskelion authors and all other authors who are pursuing e-publication.

The Siren authors are a great bunch and there's lots to talk about and tons of great book recommendations. So keep a pen and your To Be Read list handy. I'm sure you'll be adding new books to it!

She's my friend. Surely she won't mind, right? :)
