JUST IN!
​New Acquisition: Iconic Jekyll/Hyde Novel Set In America BY LOUIS K. LOWY.

IFWG Publishing is thrilled to have acquired long-standing IFWG author, Louis K. Lowy’s as-yet untitled novel featuring Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde in the US. “Lowy is an incredibly versatile author,” said Gerry Huntman, Managing Director of IFWG.

Lowy will be joined by senior editor Christopher Sequiera, who has significant expertise in Victorian-era speculative fiction.

The novel continues the tale of Dr. Jekyll, who stepped into the unknown and emerged as Mr. Hyde. It is unique in that it is the only novel to carry on from where the original 1890 story concluded.
​
The narrative picks up days later, when Hyde reawakens and transforms back to Jekyll. Fearful he’ll be punished for Hyde’s crimes, Jekyll flees London for New York City and then mosquito-infested West Palm, Florida, where he resumes his experiments in the hopes that they’ll end Hyde’s existence forever. Unfortunately, the potion produces results far worse than he could have imagined.
More information on this upcoming title will be posted soon. It will be released world-wide in September 2022.

Who the heck is this guy?

​
Glad you asked that question! My name is Louis. Officially, Louis K. Lowy. A former firefighter, I am the recipient of the Florida Invidual Artist Award and received my MFA in creative writing at Florida International University.

My stories have appeared in, among others, New Plains Review,  Pushing Out the Boat, The MacGuffin Magazine and The Chaffey Review. My humor poem “Poetry Workshop (Mary had a little lamb)" was runner-up of the 2009 Winning Writers Wergle Flomp Poetry Contest.

 My first published novel, Die Laughing, is a humorously dark sci-fi adventure set in the 1950's of flying saucers, communist paranoia and live television. Check out my Die Laughing page for information and a quick video trailer. In the trailer you'll see The Blob, Elvis Presley, and Hedda Hopper. How's that for a trio?

Currently, I am writing my seventh novel. Besides writing, I play bass guitar.

My favorite bass to play is my 1970's Fender Precision. My most well known band was Hemlock, which had the dance hits “Disco Break” "Drive Me Crazy" and “Body Rhythm.” I live in Miami Lakes, FL with my wife. We have a son in Seattle who is studying Asian Literature, a daughter who is also in Seattle doing wonderful work for United Way. We live with our spoiled Yorkie, KC.

Explore around the site. It's free, legal, and has no calories.
