Our Response to the World We Are Currently In
First and most importantly, we hope you and your family are well and safe!
In addition, we hope to survive as a small press in these times so we can continue to bring you amazing and necessary poetry and fiction while we strive to help our authors to the best of our ability and bring art and literature to you even as means to purchase is further and further from the grasp of many. Here are our initiatives that address as many of these concerns as we can:
-
All of our print titles are now on 20% discount with preorders at 25% discount. Flat shipping and handling fee of $3.50 no matter how many books you order. So order a lot!
-
We now offer digital versions of many of our books including some of our out-of print Vinyl 45s. $5 each.
-
We would love you to order from us, but we also encourage you to order directly from our authors so that they can receive direct $ in this difficult time. All of our authors are on some form of social media. DM them and go from there!
-
If you have received a digital version of one of our titles via our online store or one of our authors, you have our blessing to share the book with others who might not have the funds to purchase.
-
We are in the process of setting up a gift card system which will encourage folks to support our publishing projects but also allow a pay-it-forward type donation so folks without funds can get print copies. We'll keep you posted on that!
-
We love the shit out of you and would love other suggestions for how we can stay alive during this tragic trashfire while also supporting our authors and YOU. Email us at with thoughts and ideas.
