Here’s some graphics from the other day from positive reviews for these books. They’re indie and on top of that they’re specific ass books, which means I gotta hustle hard to get them air time, but readers have been enjoying them and that’s what matters

As a debut indie author, I’m really grateful to have found the readers I have with these two books. Would be honored to have them considered alongside 2025’s other great new releases!

Mamdani: "We can respond to oligarchy and authoritarianism with the strength it fears, not the appeasement it craves. After all, if anyone can show a nation betrayed by Donald Trump how to defeat him, it is the city that gave rise to him."

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest. There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day. What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid. It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Guardian shows how to do reporting in 2025.
Excerpt from Guardian article: “A visit by the Guardian to downtown Portland on Saturday morning confirmed that the city is placid, the farmers’ market was packed and the protest against immigration enforcement in an outlying residential neighborhood remained small. There were just four protesters on the sidewalk near the Ice field office Trump claimed was “under siege”. One, wearing a chicken costume and draped in an American flag, held up a sign that read: “Portland Will Outlive Him.” Passing motorists honked in appreciation.”

Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.

This week on Textual Healing, S. R. Schulz claims he figured out the Maudlin House cheat code.

Apparently, I have a tell.

I won’t confirm or deny but he has been published by me multiple times...

S.R. Schulz reads from Supersymmetry and pairs it with one track.

It’s short, weird, and sticks with you.

Live Saturday…

I have a few more in my office on campus or lent out, and surely some are off my radar, but holy wow it’s been a good last few years for indie press short story collections.

I have an idea, he texts."

Like a year ago, @dtrobbins.bsky.social texted me & @kevinrmaloney.bsky.social about writing a book, which turned into KFF, but first I wrote this, which now is like origin story/bonus material.
