It’s almost Mother’s Day! Here’s a funny little video from HENNY ON THE COUCH author Rebecca Land Soodak. Be warned—a bit of blue language (but very appropriate in context!).

It was a big week at GCP! We bought Charlie Kaufman’s novel. Oh and our Business Plus imprint won a bunch of Axiom awards (YAY!). Ok, is that enough bragging? Yes, yes. Let’s focus on something that is just mindblowingly cool, artfully bloody and simply brilliant—the trailer for Seth Grahame-Smith’s latest, UNHOLY NIGHT (produced by Martha Otis, Brad Negbaur, and Oscar Stern).

We are wild for this video from Brooklyn novelist Emma Straub in which she ruminates on her cats Gravy and Killer and how they help her in the creative process. Obviously we have a lot of writers in our family; however, you may not know that we also count some cats in our family too (not to mention a gaggle of cat lovers). We’ve published Simon’s Cat, Dewey and soon (May 2012) we will be releasing YOUR CAT: THE OWNER’S MANUAL by vet extradinaire Marty Becker.

We’re so excited about a new acquisition, a memoir by the sensational CeeLo Green! Here is one of our favorite CeeLo moments, from last year’s Grammys (with help from the muppets and Gwyneth Paltrow).

Hard to top that performance, but here’s CeeLo on what to expect in his memoir:

“Talk about art imitating life? Enter into the super-natural, the surreal and the extra-ordinary that is CEELO GREEN. Do you think this is by chance? CRAZY? FORGET YOU? After reading this book, there will be no doubt that I am meant to be. CEELO GREEN A.K.A ‘everybody’s brother’ will make you a believer, not only in me, but also… yourself.”

So what do you do, Jamie Raab?

Wed, 01 Feb 2012 12:02:41 -0500

So what do you do, Jamie Raab?:

In many ways, it’s harder than ever. Used to be, you just get someone on a major TV show, and voila! You’d have a hit! It’s more complicated than that now. Social media is becoming really important. It’s a combination of doing everything. There’s so much happening that, to stand out, you just have to try everything. You just have to get the book in front of people in as many ways as you can, because there is a lot of noise out there, and you just have to do everything possible to get noticed. We have digital publicists now who are focused on bloggers, and they’re working very closely with our authors. We’re also sending galleys out through NetGalley and coming up with interesting online promotions. We still advertise, whereas some publishers don’t. It’s always been my theory to have all your ducks in a row.

—Our own fantastic publisher Jamie Raab! Terrific interview with a terrific lady on Media Bistro today.

Speculating on SpecFic: Pure by Julianna Baggott:

Ok, not to brag, but we had to share this Tumblr post about PURE. It’s a week before PURE is out (it will be in stores on February 8th) and the buildup just keeps intensifying! We can’t stress how much you need to read this book if you love smart and thoughtful dystopia.
