Trouble at Triskelion?

Maybe I'm out of the loop, but has anyone else noticed that authors seem to be leaving Triskelion Publishing? I know Theresa MacFarland is no longer there, and as I was looking for cover art for Love's Creation by Cher Mason, I also noticed it was no longer there.

The Triskelion site has always been one of the worst e-pub sites for navigation and ease of use, but I did like serveral authors there. So are these authors just moving on to better things, or is there trouble brewing at the publisher?

I do think TMac has gone with other pubs for some of her books (I guess Samhain is picking up all her Triskelion releases). Along with having a name change to Ciar Cullen.

And oh, Rachel Carrington isn't there anymore, nor is Vivian Hart.

Rumor has it they instituted a rather unpopular contract change (very, very unpopular), in addition to breaking promises to several authors that were supposed to go in print but got pushed back for bigger names, and the feeling that their attentions have been mightily distracted by their RWA recognition push. Add in a new publisher giving authors a chance to shop their books and yes, I think you're right.

Ah, interesting. I suspected something like a contract change.

I haven't bought anything there in ages, I mainly like Shelly Laurenston's work, but she hasn't come out with anything in awhile and I haven't heard of anything in the works. :-(

hmmm Shelly Laurenston ? I shall write that name down ;)

I know there was some kind of post up at some blog with shit being thrown. I forget where but shall lookie for you. I don't think I have ever read a Triskelion book but have been trying to try 2 two 3 books at each epub to blog about it.

The one I have marked for this site was a Dakota one. But I haven't bought it yet.

off too look up Shelly Laurenston.. damn I am easy ;)

Thanks for coming and commenting about it. It just had struck me as odd as I hadn't heard anything, but it's nice to have more info. :-)
