Viva Editions are books that inform, enlighten, and entertain. The very name, "Viva!", is celebratory. And while Viva Editions is a line of books that are as fun as they are informational, the intention behind Viva is very serious—these are books that are truly helpful and intended to enhance people's lives.

We have a new office manager, Scout!




A Shout Out From Scout
February 2013
As the new Office Manager of Cleis Press and Viva Editions, you can find me sniffing my way from desk to desk, boosting office morale and ensuring a fabulous working environment. On a ruff day, you can find me curled up next to some Cleis and Viva classics, like Beebo Brinker and Words of Love. My favorite afternoon activities include long naps in our sunny East Bay office, and begging for treats from our interns.

Each month, I'd like to inform you of some of my new favorite books and employees here. Being the mutt brain that I am, my favorites books change as quickly as my favorite foods, but I look forward to sharing my ever-rotating interests with you, and maybe someday you can share some of your bacon with me.

In my new role as Office Manager, I would love to hear your feedback and any questions or suggestions you might have. I am now on Twitter at @CleisScout. Since I have so much power around here, I decided I'm going to offer you a really special deal: buy 3 books, get 1 free of any Cleis Press and Viva Editions titles.

We got some treats here on Valentine's Day with Arthur Plotnik on NPR's "Here and Now" talking about love and words, and the love of words. Rockstar author Tristan Taormino was in the New York Times about Fifty Shades of Fashion. My BFF twitter buddy Dr. Charlie Glickman is doing an international tour for The Ultimate Guide to Prostate Pleasure. Be sure to join him at one of his events!

If you need anything from me, or just want to connect, bark out a tweet!

Cheers!
