How to Get Published in South Jersey
 
Author of The Pineys, Tony DiGerolamo, is here to tell you all the terrible secrets of the book industry. But don’t worry, in South Jersey, you’re just as likely to be published as anywhere else! Let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work! Because getting published these days is a whole lot different than before the Internet. Whether you want to do a book, comic book, role-playing game or anything else in print--- Your journey begins with the basics. Let’s begin.

Tony DiGerolamo is a New Jersey screenwriter, novelist, comic book writer, game designer and comedian. He is best known for his work on The Simpsons and Bart Simpson comic books. He has also been a joke writer for Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher, a scriptwriter for Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and a blogger for Comedy Central’s Indecision website. He has written screenplays including Mafioso: The Father, The on starring Leo Rossi. His novels, Fix in Overtime and The Undercover Dragon are available through Padwolf Publishing.

After publishing his own comic books (Jersey Devil, The Travelers and The Fix) with SJRP, he eventually got a publishing deal with Kenzer & Company. Kenzer published The Travelers. Tony also wrote Everknights (another Kenzer comic book), as well as the Hacklopedia of Beasts (Volumes 1 thru 8) and Slaughterhouse Indigo (an adventure for the Hackmaster RPG). He also adapted Mark Twain's Personal Reflections of Joan of Arc for Campfire. He is also the writer for F*ck You, I’m Italian: Why We Italians Are Awesome, from Ulysses Press.

Performing in the Philly comedy scene for over ten years, Tony performed with and directed such improv groups as Next Line Improv, The Cabal, The Ninjas and Bulletproof Giraffe.

Besides writing for various comedy websites, he had a long running comics review column in Knights of the Dinner Table magazine. He was the marketing director for comics publisher, Silent Devil. He is creator of Tony DiGerolamo’s Complete Mafia for d20, creator/biographer for the online webcomic Super Frat, the co-creator of the Webcomic Factory, and writer for the over two dozen webcomics on the Webcomic Factory site.

His current project is a comedy/horror novella series about the hunters of the kin of the Jersey Devil called The Pineys. You can find all his ebooks and books on Amazon and his thoughts on writing and politics on his YouTube, Bitchute, Odysee and Rumble Channels with his cohost, his dog, Joan of Arc.
