Episode 2.15 - A Library of Screams with Ken McKinley

<p>This week, we're excited to have the opportunity to chat with Ken McKinley, the owner, and Editor-in-Chief of <a href="https://www.silvershamrockpublishing.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Silver Shamrock Publishing</a>. Silver Shamrock is approaching its one year anniversary and has quickly become one of the Horror genre's premier independent presses, putting out high-quality releases from both veterans of the genre and authors who are publishing their first book. We are huge fans of Silver Shamrock books and were excited to get a chance to talk to Ken and pick his brain about Silver Shamrock and publishing in general.</p> <p>During the episode, we talked about how he founded Silver Shamrock, the role of social media, James Newman's role in Silver Shamrock's origins, <em>Midnight in the Graveyard</em>, how he avoided the pitfalls of other indie presses, his long-running open call policy, taking care of authors, info on the Gord Rollo releases, IPAs,&nbsp; a story about how he got to work with his favorite author Robert McCammon, and so much more.&nbsp;Check out our conversation with Ken McKinley now right here on Ink Heist or on your favorite streaming service.</p>
