Archie of Outlandish is Named 2017 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards Finalist
PATTERSON, Calif. (PRWEB) April 05, 2018 -- Archie of Outlandish is an innocent romance set within the framework of self-acceptance and perseverance. Archibald Plumby is a young man with a peculiar phobia that has left him to live his life underneath lowered ceilings and umbrellas. As he turns twenty, he begins to wonder if his sheltered world might just have room for one more.
This book was created with charming illustrations by Abigail Kraft, as well as an original soundtrack by Jared Kraft; both are distinctive features of New Wrinkle Publishing's unique presentation.
"Accompanying the text are full-color illustrations and an original soundtrack of dramatic instrumentals. These imaginative add-ons work to create the unique atmosphere of Outlandish. ... Offbeat, emotionally engaging, and authentic." —Kirkus Reviews
"Archie is a lovely soul and the romantic tale here is a delightfully gentle read... a sweet, perfectly clumsy love story." —IndiePicks Magazine
Author, Lynnette Kraft, says, "My goal, as a writer, is to inspire and relate to readers through the lives and circumstances of compelling characters. I am honored and humbled by this recognition from industry professionals and will use it as motivation to continue growing and flourishing as a communicator and storyteller."
