Dark Alley Press launches the print release of Tom Lopinski's touching and edgy coming of age novel, "The Art of Raising Hell," on April 28, 2015. "In 'The Art of Raising Hell,' Thomas Lopinski takes the readers along on a journey as four boys grow into young adults and all the trials and tribulations that entails when living in a small town, where minor disruptions linger on the rumor mill for years. Friendships, adolescent love, and loyalties are put to the test as these teenagers face challenges that force them to decide what will define them and what will break them.
"Both entertaining and at times heartbreaking, Raising Hell reminds us all how our teenage years can shape us and how important it is to have true friends to see you through it," says Dark Alley Press Managing Editor, N. Apythia Morges. "From the first line, to the last, Lopinski weaves a tale that made me nostalgic for my own childhood, and the friends and adventures that seem to be universal to growing up in small-town America." Burbank, CA author, Thomas Lopinski grew up in Georgetown, Illinois, a quaint small town with one stoplight, one high school, one lake, one police car, and one hundred ways to get into trouble. He is a member of the Independent Writers of Southern California, and his first novel, Document 512, won several awards and recognition in 2012-2013 from Readers View Reviewers Choice Awards, Best Indie Book Awards, IndieFab Awards, and the National Indie Excellence Book Awards.
