It is with a sad heart that we say goodbye to Erin, she is truly an amazing editor (as well as a myriad of other artistic talents (a fraction of which can be found in Volume 1 of “An Honest Lie”)), and writers of either a journalistic or literary nature would be wise to listen to her words of wisdom. We have learned a lot from her, and we believe that the same can be said from her about her time and experiences with O.H.P.

May your journey take you wherever you wish to go Erin; it has been a pleasure to have you with us at O.H.P.

Though we shall miss Ms. Russell, the presses at O.H.P. just do not stop, and there is a mighty large workload to take care of… so it is without further adieu that I am pleased to announce our new Junior Editor, Davin Kimble.

Davin Kimble

lives and writes from Fort Worth, Texas.
His writing career actually started when he learned to put words together. He remembers quite well the first story he ever wrote. Since then, his work has evolved into hundreds of short stories, poems, songs, essay’s and articles.

He is currently working on his first novel, tentatively entitled “Donovan,” a story about a 30 year old propaganda writer in a future war-torn America.

Davin also creates beats and lyrics for hip-hop and alternative music, and is an amateur photographer and digital artist.

His recent published works are “Stirrings in Hell” in the anthology, “The Devil Inside,” published by the House Of Horror Ezine ; “A New Way of Being”, published by House Of Horror Ezine in their anthology titled “House of Horror Best of 2009, Issue #2;” and “A Remarkable Picture” published by Twit Publishing in their anthology titled, “Twit Publishing Presents Pulp – 2010″. Davin is the Junior Editor for Open Heart Publishing.

Welcome aboard Davin, I can’t wait to start hearing about all of the wonderful things we are going to be seeing from Open Heart Publishing over the next few weeks.

From the presses at Open Heart Publishing in Dallas Texas, Happy reading all.

Publisher: Open Heart Publishing

Submissions should be 3,000-6,000 words and relate to the theme “Delusions of Insignificance.” You can write 200-400 words a day, can’t you? Be sure to read the FAQ before you submit: www.anhonestlie.wordpress.com/faq.

And to all of you who didn’t come to The Cave of Colors Premiere, nanny-nanny-boo-boo! It was a wonderful time. More on that later, but in the meantime you can order your copies of The Cave of Colors, An Honest Lie, Vol. 1, or A Children’s Book of Necromancy from the OHP website.

In addition, the deadline is also March 15 to be considered as a writer or illustrator for an upcoming serialized fiction project with Open Heart Publishing. The setting is modern and based around a specific location and a diverse cast of characters; the “story collections” created by this team will be linear and as such the changes to characters within the story will have unique effects to plotline and development, and authors chosen for this episodic serial will receive full credit for the pieces. For more information regarding those writing and illustration opportunities, click here: http://debrincase.com/blog3/opportunities-with-o-h-p/

Artists interested in doing illustration for other projects should send a link to their work to ohpcareers@debrincase.com.

The story of “The Cave of Colors” revolves around a magical place called The Cave of Colors, wherein everything you say and do happens.

Sunday February 28, 2010. Doors open at 12:45 pm at the Center for Spiritual Living facility at 4801 Spring Valley Rd (at International Pkwy.), Dallas, Texas 75244.

Meet some of “The Cave of Colors” children, buy your own copies of this charming book, and get more information on this and other Opportunity Projects.

Also featured at the Premiere will be “An Honest Lie, Volume 1: Encouraging the Delinquency of your Inner Child,” a short story anthology, and “A Children’s Book of Necromancy,” a spell-binding book by Debrin Case.
