Garasamo (Gary) Maccagnone Virtual Book Tour ’08 Kicks Off

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 27, 2008 --

Join author Garasamo Maccagnone on his first virtual book tour with Pump Up Your Book Promotion Public Relations as he travels the blogosphere in February to talk about his literary fiction novel, “St. John of the Midfield”, an almost mystical story of Bobo Stoikov, one of the world’s greatest soccer players, who escapes death in communist Bulgaria to find the American Dream. Due to severe injury during Bobo’s escape, he is unable to play once he arrives in America. Though he finds peace and happiness in simply coaching soccer to youth travel teams, his eccentric ways of teaching and his success lead to a hate-filled rivalry, and eventually, his death.

"Garasamo Maccagnone is a writer of great literary range, says the Page One Literary newsletter, and Mark F. Trapman, author of “Jesus—The Lost Message” says, "’St. John of the Midfield,’" by Garasamo Maccagnone, is the kind of book you can't put down…Look for this book to win an award.”

Garasamo Maccagnone attended Macomb Community College, Wayne State University, and Western Michigan University (WMU). After a two year stint at both W.B. Doner and BBDO advertising agencies, Maccagnone left the industry to create a company called, "Crate and Fly," and turned it from a store front to a worldwide multi-million dollar shipping corporation within ten years. Maccagnone is also the author of a collection of short stories called “The Affliction of Dreams” and the children’s book, “The Suburban Dragon.” He resides in Michigan with his wife and three children.

“Working with Gary has been a real treat,” says Cheryl Malandrinos, Tour Coordinator for Pump Up Your Book Promotion Public Relations. “St. John of the Midfield” is an excellent novel and I am thrilled at the chance to help Gary promote it.”
