Our three newest titles are now available for pre-order at salopress.com 🤩

As a tiny tiny independent publisher running this thing on limited funds, from our dining room, we are grateful for every single order.

Thank you all for the support so far.

For those who've read (and hopefully enjoyed) "Body and Soul" can I ask if you have a moment to pop a review wherever it might matter. Published by @elsewhen.press

In other news: pre-orders for another book I've had in the pipeline for a while will be available from next Friday, so I've been told.

Just finished Body and Soul by @andrewhook.bsky.social and published by @elsewhen.press.
This is such a beautiful book! Post-apocalyptic sci-fi with a literary bent. I know it will stay with me for a long time.

Last read, current read. Punchy, fast-paced, and thought provoking space opera from @garethlpowell.bsky.social and beguiling, post-apocalyptic, literary science fiction from @andrewhook.bsky.social. 💙
