The Fuel That Propelled Us
Rook Creek Books owes its existence to three successful fundraising projects. We kept the projects small, well-defined, and made sure the rewards were a risk-free proposition for our backers. The proceeds were used to publish high-quality hardcover versions of each title, allowing the convention hand-sale model to be profitable and sustainable.
Our workshops and convention appearances often cover the fundraising topic if you’d like to hear the details.

Rook Creek Books - Funded Feb 2, 2014
If you are one of those who has purchased a copy of Ghosts in the Yew, you likely have a tale to go with it.
Accosted by the author with a smile, a handshake, and a 600-page monster, perhaps at a convention, online, or on a random street corner in Chicago or New York—you met Blake Hausladen and were convinced to give his debut novel a try. He spoke of magic, murder, and statecraft. He told you of horses, and maps, and perhaps teased you with an excerpt. |
An Audiobook Brick Movie Adventure - Funded Feb 14, 2015
Produce an audiobook brick movie? Why, yes, yes we did.
Ghosts in the Yew, book one of the Vesteal Series, is an adult fantasy adventure that tells the story of four people banished to a distant land who must survive the magic of an ancient murder. We have the audiobook, of course, copies of the hardcover edition, full color prints of the new Ghosts in the Yew cover, and for those who have a scene from the book in mind, you can have it made. |
Sophie and the G-Man - Funded Nov 21, 2019
Born from a love of fashion and all things shoes and dresses, author Deanna Sjolander discovered an adventure with Sophie along the way.
Set in a bustling company-town, Sophie and the G-Man chronicles Sophie's accidental entry into a parallel dimension where she needs to solve the mystery of the device that transported her and the reason it exists in the first place. The tale will be delivered as a serialized novella in eBook, audiobook, and paperback formats. The first two titles will introduce the reader to Sophie and her world, and from there each could be read in any order--random being the recommended method. |
