Small Press Picks had the pleasure of interviewing Darrin Doyle’s about his forthcoming novella, LET GRAVITY SEIZE THE DEAD, which SPP highly recommends, saying it’s “as spellbinding as it’s terrifying.” https://t.co/Ad72iUfsba @RegalHouse1 @TNBBC #horrorbooks #novels #novellas

@SmallPressPicks: "This insightful, darkly humorous novella starts in an unexpected place for a coming-of-age story: with a murder...The result is a haunting examination of how others’ choices and behaviors can affect us, perhaps indelibly." https://t.co/OhTwrxgXj8

Working with my university library to build an extensive list of indie publishers - this will be used as resource for academics (particularly when building course reading lists!!) and will also be handy for sourcing new library acquisitions☺️ Tag your favourites below!

@LHStanfill @daylejean @LFPbooks Thanks so much for your kind words, @LHStanfill! It was such a pleasure to read (and review) your novel.

[Richard Hoffman @rhoffman49]

Ask your local bookseller to order it, via Ingram, their usual distributor. Trouble is they don't otherwise know about it. Ask your local library as well. Thank you.
