Mainstream deal for another Matador author...

Matador author Charles Courtley has signed a mainstream publishing deal to republish his self-published Wig Begone with House of Stratus. Wig Begone sold well on publication, and was spotted by Stratus.

Charles said: 'I'm grateful for Matador's professionalism, help and assistance with Wig Begone. I've no doubt that they lead in the world of self-publishing, giving many authors a real chance of getting recognised.''
