Summerhouse-NEW-250x380Acclaimed Irish writer Val Mulkerns has published four novels, three short story collections, a number of children’s books and is a member of Aosdána, the Affiliation of Creative Artists in Ireland.

While the author’s works are available online,  they are often listed as “collectors items” and sold for between €60 and €200 per copy – too pricey for the ordinary reader.

Interested in the idea of digital publishing,  the author decided to explore the possibilities for her 1984 novel, The Summerhouse, originally published by John Murray, London  (the publisher of Lord Byron among others).

Cyberscribe scanned the original work, designed a new interior and cover, and formatted the e-book.  Subsequently published with Tara PressThe Summerhouse is now available to readers in an affordable new paperback edition and in Kindle and e-book format, and the author is once again receiving writer’s royalties for the work.  Cyberscribe also created a profile website for Val Mulkerns:  www.valmulkerns.com
