statement regarding our autumn anthology:

we're putting out our bid to buy TikTok

sad times were had

we will be taking time to regroup and gather thoughts before announcing any concrete plans for searching for new editorship, but our immediate thoughts are that we would love to use this as an opportunity to give an editor position to someone/s who has a smaller platform.

in light of today's events, Mr. Rosenberg has elected to step down and away as editor of our autumn horror anthology, Curses, Confusions, & Rebukes. we thank him for his efforts in the early phases of this book's development, and we wish him well as he takes his leave.

Hark! We are unbelievably excited to announce our full 2024 publishing slate! We're honored and humbled to be partnering with guest editors Ju Collins, Zachary Rosenberg (@ZachRoseWriter), and Lennox Rex to bring you this line-up! Full details at dionysianpubliclibrary.com/publications!

... announcement incoming...

thank you for your patience as we get the last few Vineyard responses sent out! ... and also keep an eye out tomorrow for something else too. ;)

humbled by every single sub we receive. even if it's a pass, as a scrappy little pile of a press we're so touched by everyone who looks at what we do and decides they want to play in our garden even though we're still learning how to really get the gears turning

we are but a sad little press and playhouse, a pity party if you will, but the goal is to slowly be able to pay our contributors more and more until we can give each of you your own animal crossing island & for now we're just honored that you people keep considering us as a home
