Blood Moon: Applying the tabloid standards of today to the cover-up of Hollywood's Deep-Throated Secrets.
As described by The Huffington Post, “Blood Moon, in case you don't know, is a small publishing house on Staten Island that cranks out Hollywood gossip books, about two or three a year, usually of five-, six-, or 700-page length, chocked with stories and pictures about people who used to consume the imaginations of the American public, back when we actually had a public imagination. That is, when people were really interested in each other, rather than in Apple ‘devices.’ In other words, back when we had vices, not devices.”
Reorganized with its present name in 2004, Blood Moon originated in 1997 as the Georgia Literary Association, a vehicle for the promotion of obscure writers from America’s Deep South. For several decades, Blood Moon and its key players (Darwin Porter and Danforth Prince) spearheaded the research, writing, and editorial functions of dozens of titles, and hundreds of editions, of THE FROMMER GUIDES, the most respected name in travel publishing.
Blood Moon maintains a back list of almost 50 critically acclaimed biographies, film guides, and novels. Whereas some of its early titles are distributed by Ingram, Amazon.com, and the National Book Network (www.NBNBooks.com), our newer titles are distributed exclusively through Ingram via such sales outlets as Amazon.com and online retailers worldwide.
Since 2004, Blood Moon has been awarded at least a dozen nationally recognized literary prizes. They’ve included both silver and bronze medals from the IPPY (Independent Publishers Association) Awards; four nominations and two Honorable Mentions for BOOK OF THE YEAR from Foreword Reviews; nominations from The Ben Franklin Awards; and Awards and Honorable Mentions from the New England, the Los Angeles, the Paris, the Hollywood, the New York, and the San Francisco Book Festivals. Two of its titles have been Grand Prize Winners for Best Summer Reading, as defined by The Beach Book Awards, and in 2013, its triple-play overview of the Gabor sisters was designated as Biography of the Year by the Hollywood Book Festival.
