@LouiseWalters12 @JollyAlice You are kind! Our subscribers mean everything to us - and honestly, absolutely practically - doubling our subscriber base (which costs £2.50 a month for UK readers, £3.50 for our limited edition sub.) could make ALL the difference - and possibly between survival and going under.

[Galley Beggar Press @GalleyBeggars]

@JollyAlice So true Alice - it’s devastating. We’re literally on our knees with production costs (it’s ripped through our reserves) - but, when excellence is our criteria (that comes before anything else: we have to believe in our books!) and this is now anathema, well… we’re fucked.

[Alice Jolly @JollyAlice]

What you do is totally brilliant and I am hoping you can find courage in difficult times. There is a massive gap at present between what audiences / readers are open to receiving and what a bunch of tedious but powerful gate-keepers are insisting that should want to see / read.

[Galley Beggar Press @GalleyBeggars]

It’s been a tough year with runaway print costs - and this makes us feel, more than ever, that we stand no chance with the one funding body the UK has.

@thesecondshelf So very sorry to read this. Just unbelievably awful. Thinking of you. There are no words for this. So hope the police can do something. A huge virtual hug.
