Good luck at the launch of Where Shall We Travel Today? by Kristin Martin and Nicky Johnston. It's quite strange not being able to attend, but it is because I'm actually travelling myself. Have a great time in Adelaide today Saturday 5th July (2pm at West Torrence Library, free and open for anyone who'd like to attend) while I send sunny thoughts from Sweden.

My first time at Book Face in St Ives, and it was full of sparkles and laughs! Thanks to the lovely Luke, Josh and Madison, there are now signed copies of my new in and I can’t wait for you to immerse yourself in its dangerous yet thrilling world. Carnivorous trees. Giant water-ants. One peril follows another. An unforgettable adventure awaits! And you can pick up a copy at Bookface, or whichever bookstore is closest to you. It’s online too, as am I - so please follow me for more adventures! Links in bio or over here: http://zenashapter.com/portfolio/when-dark-waters-burn/

As my weekend holiday in Adelaide went on, I slowly became aware that my copy of “When Dark Waters Burn” by was well suited to Adelaide highlights like Central Market and coffee institution The Perfect Cup. It’s quite pleasing to feel like a local as you literally blend in to your surroundings…. 😉

Our Story

MidnightSun Publishing has grown out of a disenchantment with the established publishing houses in Australia. We know there are plenty of fabulous manuscripts about unusual topics floating around, but publishing new and unknown writers poses a big risk. MidnightSun is prepared to take that risk.

We want our readers to be entertained. We want to challenge, excite, enrage and overwhelm. Therefore, we publish books in any genre that have touched us in some way. Because we are a new publishing company, striving to become established, we expect our writers to be enthusiastic about their own work and able to promote it in the wider community.

MidnightSun Publishing produces beautiful, enjoyable and sometimes challenging books. Anna Solding's The Hum of Concrete was released in March 2012 and since then we’ve gone from strength to strength. Many of our books have been shortlisted for and won awards. Some have been translated and published overseas. Check them out here: http://midnightsunpublishing.com/
