They're here! These weird little poems who walked themselves into being a few years ago, accompanied by an evening stroll with a washing machine just a few weeks ago. Thanks, @GhostCityPress!

If you are able to help this little bird get a bunch of books printed…all money Ethel makes goes back into Ethel, I don’t receive grants of funding, so the press is supported by sales, when sales are down, it gets hard. Thanks 🩵🦋

"The question of 'human' is present throughout the text, flipping the narrative to dehumanize Krao’s captors, colonial conquest, and the idea of the circus."

"I often use fairy tales and folklore to try and make sense of late Capitalism—this essay is an attempt at sense-making." This week's featured story is a hybrid by @AmyBobeda https://t.co/uB37ugK1zd
Getting a few books up for pre-order in the next week. Your pre-orders help me pay for production costs and know how many I need to get printed. Thanks!
