From Heartbreak to Unthinkable Madness…
There are some kinds of heartbreak you never get over. Desperate to gain joint custody of her beloved two-year-old son, beaten down by her vengeful ex-husband’s expensive lawyers, Paulina Riquelme works seventy hours a week at her dead-end bartender job, hoping someday to afford competent legal assistance. The burden of grief and loss makes her life a living hell. But one day, she is offered a bizarre opportunity, courtesy of the exquisitely beautiful and unimaginably wealthy Keiko Miyazaki, who is now married to Robert, a deep regret of Paulina’s past. Keiko presents Paulina with an unsent letter from Robert, which proves that Paulina was—and probably still is—his one true love. Despite everything Keiko can offer him, Robert has descended into a dark cycle of self-destructive drinking, and when Keiko is away from their estate on her weekly business, he is at risk of accidents and self-harm. Keiko has a twisted scheme to keep him safe… a scheme that will solve Paulina’s financial and legal problems, if she can commit to an unthinkable task for one year. Despite her misgivings, Paulina agrees, only to discover that the nightmarish life she was living before pales in comparison to the fever-dreams of Keiko’s world. Wildly inventive and suspenseful, Bleeding Out in Dreamland is the seductive psychological horror story you’ve been waiting for.

From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
