Hope you and yours are staying well. I'm going to dive right in here.

Cyber Smut News

We had a fantastic virtual launch for our Cyber Smut anthology - which I am calling an absolute f*%$ing work of art. So moving and apt. Yes I'm biased, but the book is well worth a read. The evening started with a breathtaking reading by Julian Bishop (his poem 'Tracker') and finished with an impromptu reading by Greg Wilder (his poem 'I'd Give Her the Dickinson') in which he sounded remarkably similar to Jack Kerouac, which was wonderful (how'd he do that?). We have some nice reviews on Goodreads.

Thank you to everyone who attended the event - it was great to have you there.

Euphoric Recall News

I think the release of Euphoric Recall can best be described as an explosion. In the best possible way. Written by Aidan Martin, it's a raw story of a working-class lad in Livingston and his recovery from addiction and trauma. There are many reviews on Amazon and Goodreads.

To be honest, I am bowled over. The reviews are outstanding, with most saying 'I couldn't put it down.' For me, the strength of the writing is its absolute sincerity and brutal honesty. There aren't many books out there that can hit you the way this one does. Well done Aidan.

On 23 September we received this news: Neil Findlay MSP introduced Motion S5M-22809 in Scottish Parliament to support the publication of Euphoric Recall and its positive impact on the debate on drugs and drug deaths in Scotland. 

I am at a loss for words - is amazing ok?

On 1 October we had a fantastic virtual launch - many thanks to all who attended. If you'd like to find out more about Euphoric Recall, join us on 9 October, 7-8pm GMT, for a virtual live chat with Aidan Martin and Mark Deans (cover artist). We'll have a short reading and then a Q/A session. To register, click here.
