Worth thinking about how long Tolkien goes on in Return of the King about despair being a weapon, and presenting defeat as a forgone conclusion being a deliberate and effective tactic

Hark! I am here to sing the praises of Ontario Arts Council grant funding! We would like to acknowledge the OAC & government of Ontario for the travel grant that made our presence ReaderCon possible! Going to conventions is impactful for a small press like ours for visibility, networking, & more!

how about instead of marking everything 25% off in our webstore you instead pay full price for everything and we continue being able to pay rent and our authors but ALSO we'll personally kiss the front cover of every order

For those of us who want to livestream view the Shirley Jackson Awards ce soir, it's going to be on their YT page. Thanks to Undertow Publications for finding out!

Surely there is a livestream tonight of the Shirley Jackson Awards? I can't seem to find info on it. There must be one. Surely? (See what I did there?) Anyone know if it'll be streamed?

Added to the table! @aquinoauthor.bsky.social @lormaggot.bsky.social 🖤

Can we suggest some spooky summer reads… ? 🖤👻📚

What’s that?! A NEW J. KRAWCZYK book?!?! That’s right- the author who brought you IT LOOKS LIKE DAD has a novel of cosmic horror, truck stops, self deprecation, and skeleton bobble heads… this one’s for you! A reality bending late night drive through Motherhood and the horrors of being human. 🖤👻📚

COVER REVEAL—REALITY SQUALL by J. Krawczyk! Available August 13 in Paperback and Ebook. Pre-orders will be available soon!

We unexpectedly met this great indie author this weekend! Love to find & carry experimental and self published horror- sometimes the barrier is as clear as a bad discount on distro, or a title only being available on Am*zon. Don’t be scared to stop by and chat with us about it! 🖤👻📚
