Wanna know how you’re going to die?
@GrendelPress There aren’t many publishers providing a home for novelettes & though many authors want to have their works in physical form there are a good number who don’t care about format that much, so digital only would work. I’m certainly happy to have some of my works in digital format.
Toying with the concept of allowing short stories and novelettes into our store for digital-only, direct purchase. #authors Opinions? Pros/Cons, what would entice you to submit, and would it be worth it for you?
It’s my birthday! And I’d love nothing more than if you picked up one of my books…or reviewed one you’ve already read…or simply shared this post!
Excited to announce that my novelette “Mnemonic” will be published in an upcoming issue of Lady Churchill’s Rosebud Wristlet! This beautiful zine has been so foundational and inspirational to me. I am over the moon.
There's a joke from IT guys for how to politely say the error is the user's stupidity, but I can't remember it. Anyone know it?
We're over on Insta as well if you're that way inclined. You'll probably see @cutfingers666 art sooner over there, too 🐁
Working behind the scenes on our first anthology call. More news on that when we have it. If you could spread the word of a small press wanting to do right by creatives then that would be wonderful 🐀🐁
We used to require legal names on contracts, but nowhere else. But since all of this discussion, I looked into it, and a contract signed with a pseudonym is also binding, so we're not requiring them anymore, anywhere.
Despite the nicer weather, a creepy chill remains in the air… That’s because @HightowerLaurel has a new book out today! Happy release day!
...just signed a contract on a story I submitted 35 times between March 2023 and March 2024 and thought no one would ever take... 🥹
It's finally here! It's The Day of the Door!
Lookee what landed in my kindle! 😱 This cover gives me the creeps and it’s Hightower so of course I’m gonna read it. Happy release day to THE DAY OF THE DOOR and @HightowerLaurel ! 🖤💀🖤
