Current Words - The Publishing World of Dianne Pearce and David Yurkovich

Current Words - The Publishing World of Dianne Pearce and David Yurkovich

https://youtu.be/LaxdC6GHTSk

When one takes two formidable creative forces and joins them together, well what do you expect will happen? CREATIVITY!

Dianne Pearce and David Yurkovich met when Dianne's dog placed a print ad for a walking buddy. Since that time they have gone on to establish CURRENT WORDS an alternative publisher created to help authors bring their manuscripts to completion and, ultimately, publication. Current Words is NOT a vanity press - rather it built on relationship building. Simply put-  does a particular project fit with the goals of CURRENT WORDS and is CURRENT WORDS the right place for the work? Publishing predicated on relationships - an old fashion notion that is so relevant in the AI dominated world.

Both Dianne and David are accomplished authors. David began his writing career by writing and illustrating graphic novels. His first published work was DEATH BY CHOCOLATE. His DBC stories were later published in a collected edition as DEATH BY CHOCOLATE: REDUX. He is the creator of the quirky graphic novels super-hero collection LESS THAN HEROES. His other works include ALTERCATIONS, the novels GLASS ONION and BANANA SEAT SUMMER. He is currently serializing two works on Kindle Vella: NEW SANTA | CRIMSON RED and CAPES AND MASKS.

Dianne is an award-winning author, editor, writing coach, teacher, and publisher who has helped hundreds of authors in their goal of publication. She has been recognized by numerous organizations including The National Council of Teachers of English, The National Federation of Press Women, and The Delaware Press Association. In 2014 Dianne formed The Milton Workshop, a group dedicated to nurturing authors and developing their novels. She and David cofounded Devil’s Party Press, an independent publishing house working with authors over forty, a group she felt it was underserved in publishing. She is the founder and editor of the award-winning online literary magazine, INSTANT NOODLES where she strives to give good short-form writing recognition. In 2022 Dianne founded the poetry collective, Old Scratch Press.

READING BEN, AGAIN AND AGAIN

What is talent anyway?

I met Ben Talbot when he somehow found me online, and asked me to edit a short story he had written. I read the short story, and it was, well, you know, my kinda fiction. It was funny, sly, and odd in the best possible way. It took me by surprise, and, as a person who has read thousands of books and probably hundreds of manuscripts, it is hard to write something that presents to me as fresh.…
