Diamond Says No To House of Sugar

House of Sugar by Rebecca Kratz, to be published by Hope Larson through her Tulip Tree Press, has been refused placement in the Previews catalog by dominant comics market distributor Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc.

While no one, including Larson, thinks that House of Sugar was likely to set sales record in North American comic book stores, it's distressing when a new publisher with a definite aesthetic point of view offering up quality, non-derivative work is rejected by Diamond out of hand before being given a chance to see if they can find a way to sell successfully through the company. Hopefully, Diamond will reconsider with this book or future efforts, as they have with other publishers, most recently PictureBox, Inc.

Larson has posted the highly amusing rejection letter.
