Wanderlight Unveils Plateworks, Welcomes Mickey Bloom, Teases Hollow Trail, and Rebrands Nonfiction

New illustrated serials, a noir‑western launch, a classic trail novel on the horizon, and two fresh nonfiction releases.

Wanderlight Press is expanding our universe of stories with Plateworks, a brand‑new division dedicated to five‑chapter serials punctuated by concept‑art illustration plates that pull readers deeper into the worlds our authors create.

Plateworks opens with Mickey Bloom’s high‑octane Blood Orange Moonrise saga. Book One—Funeral for a Grifter tracks a washed‑up con man, a haunted bounty hunter, and a desert‑born conspiracy across Mercy Flats. The edition includes original illustration plates and our new Plateworks imprint marks.

We’re also saddling up for Harlan Boone Cartwright’s Hollow Trail, a winter‑crisp Western that rides hard on questions of justice and family. Check out our Social Media for chapter drops, the cover reveal, and preorder news.

Meanwhile, our factual shelf has a cleaner name: Wanderlight Press Nonfiction. Under the new banner, we’ve released two books by Dennis W. Davis:

  • Beneath an Endless Sky — a family travel memoir spanning 10,000 miles of national parks, small towns, and backroad kitchens across the American West.
  • The Superposition of Us — reflections on AI, authorship, and the creative life in a rapidly changing world.
