FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
One of the most popular games of chance gets Pulpy in the latest release from Pro Se Productions. A leader in Genre Fiction, Pro Se Productions announces the debut of its latest anthology -- Poker Pulp.
“Poker,” says Pro Se Partner and Editor in Chief Tommy Hancock, “is a game made for Pulp stories. Legends, myths, even a language of sorts has grown up around the game in all its various types and guises. And of course such a game invites a colorful cast of characters to play it, as witnessed on any one of the TV channels carrying poker tournaments ad infinitum late at night a few years back. The staple of many a good Western tale and even several Noir type stories, it only made sense to take Poker into the Pulp arena. And of course, with Pro Se doing that, we’re offering you a bit of what you’d expect and a dose of something different. Each story has Poker at its center, but the writers bring their own touch to the tales, casting the game into new genres with different faces around the table than the usual suspects. But someone still wins and someone still loses in Poker Pulp, and usually more than just money.”
Aces and Eights, a Dead Man’s Hand. Life and Death dealt over a shuffle of a deck. Stakes from dollar bills to souls tossed into the center of the table. And sitting around, waiting for the turn of a card, to raise, check, bet, or fold, are rogues, scoundrels, dames, and sharps. Every single one betting their last breath on the hand they hold.
Pro Se Productions presents Poker Pulp, an anthology centered around the storied, legendary game of cards and chance. Authors J. H. Fleming, Michael Krog, and Brad Mengel deal three tales that up the ante, taking Poker to an all new level of Pulp. Action, adventure, and intrigue are the game of choice in Pro Se Productions’ Poker Pulp.
Poker Pulp features a stylish cover and striking logo design by Jeffrey Hayes, print formatting and cover layout by Percival Constantine, and eBook formatting by Russ Anderson.
This three story collection is available in print via Amazon at http://tinyurl.com/ohuhbbo and at Pro Se’s own store at http://tinyurl.com/oapepfl for $9.00. Poker Pulp is also available as an eBook for the Kindle at http://tinyurl.com/oytb6s3 and for most other formats at http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/507105 for only $2.99.

The New Adventures of SeƱorita Scorpion from Pulp Obscura and Pro Se Productions!
A fearless Avenger for Justice atop a blazing steed! The explosive blast of six-guns filling the air, punctuated by the sharp crack of a whip! A mask protecting the identity of someone fighting for Right in the Old West! All the elements to make a fantastic Pulp story came together decades ago in tales crafted by a prolific Pulp Writer. Now PULP OBSCURA, an imprint of Pro Se Productions in conjunction with Altus Press, proudly presents three new tales of this groundbreaking character from Pulp’s Golden Era!
Pulp Obscura’s THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SENORITA SCORPION, featuring Les Savage, Jr.’s Masked Mistress of the Range is now available, adding another stellar star to the lineup of classic, but often forgotten or underrated heroes now living again in Pro Se’s exciting imprint!
Created by Savage in 1944 for Action Stories, Senorita Scorpion is in fact Elegra Douglas, a young lady who became a legendary outlaw defending her family's land and legacy, the fabled Lost Santiago Mine. Beautiful and deadly. A crack shot. A Fast thinking, daring fighter who is ruthless to those who threaten the land and people under her protection!
“Senorita Scorpion,” stated Tommy Hancock, Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “is a wonderful character on several levels with so much potential. Masked heroes in the Wild West have a special place in the heart of fans of all sorts, from Pulps to old time radio to television and beyond. Senorita Scorpion fits right into the category. Then add in the fact that not only is this a female lead character created at a time when that wasn’t done very often, but that she was written to be as strong and capable as the very men she stood against. Les Savage, Jr. gave Pulp fiction a heroine that is just as relevant now as she was in the 1940s and we’re definitely glad to be a part of continuing her adventures!”
Nancy A. Hansen sends Senorita Scorpion into action to the ringing of THE BELLS OF ST. FERDINAND! Andrea Judy demonstrates that some jail breaks simply need A WOMAN’S TOUCH! And Brad Mengel posts a fantastic bounty with WANTED: SENORITA SCORPION! Three great writers bring a classic Pulp character galloping back to life in three daring tales of hard riding action and bold adventure!
From out of the Past comes New Tales of Classic Characters from PULP OBSCURA! With editing by Percival Constantine, an amazing cover by Mike Fyles and Format and Design by Sean Ali, ride alongside the mysterious blond bandit of the Old West in THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SENORITA SCORPION! Available from Pro Se! Coming soon in Ebook format!
