Raconteur Press Announces Promotions, Increased Focus on Boys Adventure Books

IOWA PARK, Texas - EntSun -- Raconteur Press is pleased to announce several personnel changes driven by an increased focus on their Boys Adventure Book Line.

Cedar Sanderson will be joining the executive team at Raconteur Press. The former Lead Editor of the Boys Adventure Book Line, Sanderson will now focus on expanding Raconteur's physical sales and presence in brick-and-mortar establishments, including libraries.

"I'm very excited about stepping into leadership with Raconteur Press," said Sanderson. "Now I can move from haunting libraries to stocking libraries!"

Editor Christopher DiNote will take over Sanderson's former position and assume responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Boys Adventure Book Line. A retired USAF colonel, DiNote will be responsible for all aspects of operations for the line, including acquisitions.

"Boys Adventure fiction is the most important thing we do at Raconteur Press," said Raconteur Founder Ian McMurtrie. "Cedar and Chris will continue to work closely together.
