Let’s acknowledge up top that these are 🍌🍌🍌 times we’re living through. Like, to even be thinking about reading our weird little books is a luxury? But also maybe a much needed respite/self-care?

Anyway: we hope you’re out there protesting, calling electeds, and communing with each other. And our books will always be there waiting, whenever you need ‘em.


For anyone going to the AWP Conference (or just hangin’ out in L.A. 😎) from March 27–29, come see us at the book fair: Booth T-1147!

It’s a been a long time since we did this event & it’ll be a long time ‘til we do it again. So swing by, say “hey” (Cavar will even be doing a book signing for FAILURE TO COMPLY on Friday at 11am PT), and get yourself some $10 books from us.

We’ll also be back in Iowa City for the Mission Creek Festival book fair on April 5!


According to this interview with one of our co-founders, it’s our 20th birthday this month. Who knew we’d make it this far? 🤷

The anniversary gifts are for you, though: Go to our site until the end of the month and get 20% off anything when you use code 20YRS at checkout. And thanks to everybody who made this possible!

Coincidentally, March is also National Small Press Month. So get out there & show some love.


In other co-founder news, Zach Dodson just launched a new narrative video-game studio (with the same literary sensibility as fp): Interactive Tragedy, Limited.

Their first release is “Sub-Verge,”a psychological puzzle game where players manipulate a fractured band of deep-sea divers to talk their way outta a sub—before a horror from the depth surfaces… Check ‘em out at interactivetragedy.com!


Did we overdo it with the emojis this time? We think we did.
