TNM Publishing is home of The New Magratheans and was founded in 2012 with the goal of creating writing worlds that were immersive, unique, and, most of all, fun to read. To date, TNM boasts five authors in its roster, each with a different writing world or specialty. With a company slogan of “Read Outside the Box” TNM prides itself on doing things just a little differently. The company publishes fiction in two formats; traditional, paperback novels and online serial novels that release up to two chapters a month.

The unique design of Vosteros allows readers to pick up any book within the writing world and read it at any time. None of the full length novels in Vosteros are sequential, meaning one has to be read before a different one can be read, but they are all intertwined. Each book contains bits of foreshadowing and cleverly hidden Easter eggs that a clever reader will remember when reading a different book where those easily overlooked bits become important. Currently, there are two full length novels in print for the world of Vosteros and the writing world also boasts TNM’s longest running serial novel, The Ballad of Bayan Stormhammer
that touches every sub-genre under the umbrella. It’s an audacious goal, but with Lloyd’s unique mindset it is working out well. Within Farfate readers can currently find typical space exploration plots via, “The Farfate Expedition,” and events within that serial novel lead to its spin-off which is a post-apocalypse story line titled, “Utopia Falling.” Lloyd is currently working on the first full-length novel for the Farfate universe which he is teasing as a space fantasy titled “Undetectable.”
The two most recent additions to TNM’s lineup both dabble in the horror genre; Kevin Mooseles (whom you may know from his work with The Escapist) and Daniel Pirlot. Kevin’s writing world, “The Resistance is Dead,” is a unique take on zombie lore and actually answers a lot of questions that are usually left unanswered in zombie related fiction. Since Kevin has the zombie thing locked down, TNM recruited Daniel Pirlot to handle a more supernatural side of horror that sometimes leans more toward suspense. With his first bit of professional writing, “Through Death’s Door” released in June of 2016, Daniel Pirlot has just started his journey as a writer but actually doubles as a professional makeup artist and prop maker. He is the owner of Unleashed Effects and made the big, fancy hammer, that TNM brings to all of its conventions (the hammer is Cassan’wra from The Ballad of Bayan Stormhammer).
