NEW CHILDREN'S BOOK 'AUCTION': Published writer selling 85+ original kid's books---

Published writer with credits is selling a large lot of almost 90 children's books, to help pay the mortgage on his home. Books are all original, and at least 2,000-words each.
 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR Log (Press Release)Jun 20, 2009 – A successful California writer with many credits is selling 85+ original children's books, written by he and his wife in 2004 and 2005. Titles are 2,000 words each, to 2,500-words. These are all clever stories, almost 90 titles in the complete collection. Author Julian Phillips suggests these as ideal for family film-projects, animation, educational, distribution, private, TV, stage, or other. All stories are suitable for young ages, 9-years to 14-years, and are non-offensive, funny, adventurous, way out, goofy, he adds.

The author is asking $5,000 for all, less than $100 per title, and will sign over rights to serious buyers. The writer can be contacted at phillips_p@att.net, or call 805-461-5746.  

Titles include, ‘Every Day is My Birthday’, ‘What To Do When the Dog Won’t Eat Your Homework’, ‘The Canine Café’, ‘The Underwater House’, ‘Baby Body Builder’, ‘Wolf’s Wedding’, ‘The Super-Special Spy-Glasses’, ‘Love Dummies’, ‘Franchesca the Singing Guitar’, ‘The Beagle and the Eagles’, ‘The Elephant and the Ant’, ‘The Magician’s Wager’, ‘The Bashful Donkey’, ‘The Pirate and the Monkey’, ‘The Pudgy Princess’, ‘The Stonecutter’s Wish’, ‘The Thinking Cap’, ‘Tiger, My Tiger’, and 69 more, for a total of 87 books.

“During these hard economic times, my wife and I decided to auction this collection, at about the price indicated,” the writer said. “To be honest, I’m trying to pay some sink-or-swim bills myself, such as our mortgage. I’m a career-writer, but these are special to us. We’ve literally written more children’s books than many much more famous authors in the past, with this collection. And yet, they’ve never found an audience. So an ‘auction’ makes sense.”

Phillips says he is interested in selling these as a collection, within the next 20 days, or by the first week in July, 2009. He and his wife will not break-up the set, and are seeking a single buyer.

The author’s writing experience includes a production of his feature script, 'The Sunset Mechanic', with Forge Films in Virginia, currently on DVD as 'Allegheny Sunset'. A feature film script, 'Ex$pendable', finished a two-week production-shoot in October of 2007, in New Jersey, with a budget of $100,000. Also, the author optioned his fourth feature script to Cinewerx Films in Munich, in 2006.  In 2005, Phillips had three other feature scripts under option. In 2006, his screenplay 'Pilofio and Elogia' was optioned by Hell's Kitchen Films, for production in Costa Rica in 2007. Also in 2008, he optioned and sold a feature screenplay, called 'The Loco Tree'. Phillips has also done four half-hour audio-theater plays for Lion's Den Studios in Virginia, and an educational syllabus and audio-CD for The Institute for Excellence in Writing. He also teaches screenwriting classes locally. A 50-minute stage-play was completed in 2005 for a successful Los Angeles stage and TV actor, and a documentary film-script is currently being filmed and edited on South Africa-related topics. Two of Julian’s short stage-plays were performed in San Francisco in 2006. This is in addition to screen-credit in the past on about 12 educational and travel films and videos, published fiction, and work as a print journalist. The writer has completed at least 10 feature scripts on spec, and many others as ‘paid for-hire’ work. Articles on scripts by Julian Phillips appeared in Creative Screenwriting and Scr(i)pt magazines, in 2006. IMDb credits are listed as ‘Julian Phillips’.
