Change of Scenery

As is necessary from time to time, things change. Change, unlike greed, is good. Cadre One Publishing has embraced this cosmic inevitability and found a home in New Hampshire. This state was often the scene of our escape from work retreats; the fresh air and greenery make it feel like we’ve put down permanent stakes […]

Author Rejects Multi-Million Dollar Contract

You may’ve heard how it’s hard to earn a living in publishing. Well, it is. That’s why we were amazed to learn our author turned up his nose at a $2.3M 3-book/movie deal. And that he failed to mention this to us. Naturally, we were a tad curious… C.O.P.: So. Nice weather today, yeah? Farnham: […]

Greetings from Las Vegas!

C.O.P. is mixing business with pleasure in the King of all Sin Cities. No, we’re not here to see Wayne Newton, retain legal sex workers, or get Rain-Man-rich overnight. We are here, however, to network and possibly get in a touch of R&R. All work and no play, you know… It’s hard not to get […]

Local Author Extravaganza

December 26th, Allen Farnham will be attending the Local Author Extravaganza at the Shrewsbury, MA Borders Bookstore. The timing is perfect, because after you’re done returning all the Christmas tree embroidered sweaters and Paisley ties you got this year, you’ll have the chance to spend that fat wad of cash in your pocket on something […]

Happy Frakkin’ Holidays

C.O.P.- “As for you, Farnham, let’s keep those chapters coming. We’re starting to feel a bit…Inquisitional.”

Farnham- “You don’t scare me. I worked retail…”

C.O.P.- “We all had a job in retail once…”

Farnham- “…for thirteen years.”

(Awkward silence broken by shuffling feet.)

C.O.P.- “We’ll sing Christmas Carols.”

(Air in office occults with tangible fear)

Farnham- “That’s wanton.”

(staring contest ensues)

C.O.P- “I played my drum for Him, pa rum pum pum pum…”

(Maniacal shrieks. A door slams. MacBook start up tone sounds, followed by clacks of key strokes)

And business resumes…

Author’s Book signing in Murfreesboro, NC

We had no idea the response would be so strong. Though a new author, Mr. Farnham charmed the room. All ages turned out at the Elizabeth Sewell Parker Memorial Library in historic Murfreesboro, NC, and we sold a lot of books. Luckily for us, our author isn’t in it for the money, and he confessed […]

Yo Mama

I saw yo mama walkin’ down the street kickin’ a can. I said, “Hey! Whatcha doin’?” She said, “Moving.” Yup. Cadre One Publishing is moving. We’re taking the biz down to North Carolina for a while. There will be no interruptions to order fulfillment, thanks to the miracles of modern technology. So why North Carolina? […]

Living in Salem during Halloween

I can’t recall a Halloween so warm in Salem. Local papers estimated we’d have over a hundred thousand visitors. A conservative estimate, to be sure. Every year, the closed downtown streets are jam packed with the alter egos of regular folks, all soused on cheap booze. Cover bands blare their renditions over tinny loudspeakers, and […]

Salem’s Haunted Bizarre Bazaar, in Retrospect

Once again, Cadre One Publishing put up a tent in downtown Salem, Mass. The weather was kind, and the forecasted rain did not come (we credit our Meteorologist friend, Rick, with possessing superpowers). In twenty two hours, we encountered many things. -One man with long dread locks in a business suit (He wore it well) […]

Haunted Bizarre Bazaar THIS weekend in Salem

This is the weekend to come out and mix with some certified crazies. Downtown Salem, on the Essex Street Pedestrian Mall, it’s the Haunted Biz Baz! Mr. Farnham will be working a tent Saturday (10am-8pm) and Sunday (10am-6pm), right out front of the CVS and ultra-convenient to Fuel Coffee Bar. Pharmaceuticals and caffeine…how else would […]
