Jolly Fish Press Signs Multiple Book Deal with New Author

PROVO, UT—Jolly Fish Press has acquired the publication and distribution rights for an exciting three-book series and one standalone novel from Johnny Worthen.

The series, Eleanor, a YA paranormal, takes the YA market in a radical and exciting new direction both in subject matter and narrative style.

The standalone novel, The Finger Trap, is an adult comedy brimming with insightful hilarity and lays the groundwork for a new beloved American character. The first of these titles will be published in 2014, with Eleanor leading the pack.

Worthen's works have impressed JFP enough to acquire his books for the next several years. JFP wagers Johnny Worthen will be a name well-recognized at the top of the charts.

Worthen graduated with a BA in English and Master's in American Studies from the University of Utah. After a series of businesses and adventures, including running his own bakery, Worthen found himself drawn to the only thing he ever wanted to do: write. And write he does. When he's not pounding on his keyboard or attending writers conferences, Worthen spends his time with his wife and two boys in Sandy, Utah.
