Talented Romanian Writer Marian Coman: Now Available in English on Kindle!
“When it comes to the Romania writers the one name that impressed me lately and that comes immediately into my mind because of this fact is Marian Coman.” (The Dark Wolf Fantasy Review)As exemplified by World Fantasy Award winner Zoran Zivkovic and other writers, one way to a larger audience is by finding a way to self-publish your work in English and use that beachhead as a way to get more attention, find an English-language publisher, and then dive back into non-English publication when editors at Spanish, Italian, and other publishing houses read your work in English.Now the talented Romanian writer Marian Coman has taken the bull by the horns, found a translator, and published a short e-book collection via Kindle: Fingers and other fantastic stories.It has a great cover, and it's inexpensive. Go forth and buy.Also, Coman is looking for signal boost for his book. You can contact Coman via facebook or via his email: marian.coman @ obiectivbr.ro if you're interested in interviewing him or doing a review or mention and need more information.Coman is a noted Romanian novelist and journalist. He is the editor of the daily lens - Voice Braila. He has two critically acclaimed collections of stories published in Romania, and he won a prize from the European SF Society. Work has also appeared in several publications, including the 2007 Millenium Est anthology edited by Horia Ursu and myself, which presented Romanian writers in French translation at the Utopiales convention.We were lucky enough to meet Marian in Bucharest a few years back---very interesting guy with good taste in fiction.(Please feel free to link to this post, or even just re-use the info however you like on your own blog.)
