A very generous and flattering profile of our press from the excellent Will Dady at @renardpress.com and in association with the splendid @spiracleaudiobooks.bsky.social : www.spiracleaudiobooks.com/articles/sam... I spoke - at great length! - and he very kindly and patiently took it all down...

Sharing this again! I've since added the @saraband-books.bsky.social book 'Peat and Whisky: The Unbreakable Bond' by Mike Billett to this list, as well as 'The Zebra and Lord Jones' by Anna Vaught (and @renardpress.com )😍
As we're coming up to Christmas 🎄 I thought I'd highlight some indie-published books 📚 that I've loved this year, in case you'd like some recommendations for gifts. 🎁

I'll tag the publisher in each one, and then list some indie bookshops at the end.

Please, please add to this 🧵

Day out in Edinburgh, coming back with a very pleasing pile of books which feel just right for winter nights. Uneasy Elixers is a cracking cocktail book. Lots of classics with smart twists inspired by Edward Gorey. I'm keeping this one but it would make a fantastic present

So excited for this - and it looks like it might be sold out! 👀

Although my first book was published in 2002, now is the first time I have had two books in print at the same time, Seven Nights and the Flamingo Hotel and Saltburn.

And I’m very proud of both, @beardedbadgerbooks.bsky.social @renardpress.com

A cheeky little folk horror story from @renardpress.com:

Her Winter Song by Anna Vaught.

This one is a real treat for the festive season - think Ira Levin unsettling, but with gorgeous art, and a really nicely presented book. Like an A24 film on paper.

@renardpress.com Well that was an interesting experience! Losing my Gertrude Stein virginity to 'Blood on the Dining Room Floor'. Not quite sure what to make of it.

"Blood on the Dining Room Floor" by Gertrude Stein
This short novella isn't a conventional murder mystery but a modernist experiment, regarded as one of the least accessible of Stein's works...

Send a book instead of a card for Christmas and support a charity. It’s a win win Christmas win.
Can’t quite believe it’s time already… but here’s the latest #christmascard Classic, once again supporting our friends Three Peas. This year, instead of a Christmas card, why not send a book and support the work of a refugee charity! 💚💚💚
