Around the Bend by R. Keith
 
“This is the novel equivalent of somebody choosing ‘Tequila’ at karaoke.”
– Michael Seymour Blake
 
 
“A quietly screeching tape loop we hear in the distance but tirelessly can’t find. This collection rinses the brain clean after an attack of a thousand tiny wasp stings. Get lost inside the fog and walk among R. Keith’s eerily taciturn characters we won’t admit remind us of ourselves.”
– Chelsea Tadeyeske, editor of pitymilk press

Miles of Sky Above Us, Miles of Earth Below
by Steve Denehan

“Steve Denehan is an extraordinary poet. In this debut collection, he writes about ordinary everyday events in his life and does so in a way that will resonate with the reader. He succeeds in making the personal, universal. His poems are multi-layered, full of depth and will leave you thinking long after you finish reading them. These poems will make you smile, they will make you cry and everything in between. His love for his family, particularly his daughter and his parents shine through. He brings his daughter to life so well, I almost feel as if I know her. There is something for everyone in this high-quality debut collection.”
Anne Walsh Donnelly – Award-winning poet and short story writer

“Steve Denehan’s poetry brings unforgettable impact into small spaces, reveals the fabric of solitude in epic proportions, and tells stories of the moments where life truly exists. His honest and unmasked style is at once beautifully accessible and magnificently profound, in ways that seem to stop time. He is unrivaled in his craft and, without question, one of the most talented contemporary poets you will have the pleasure of reading.”
Susan Richardson – Award-winning and widely published poet

Our next publication, Requiem for a Robot Dog by Lauren Scharhag, will be available for purchase within a day or two! Keep your eyes peeled for this beautiful book featuring photography by the author on the cover and the interior chapter pages…

This is the universe we inhabit: a universe that has produced both David Bowie and James Baldwin, Klingons, Publisher’s Clearinghouse sweepstakes, E.T., and Garbage Pail Kids. We coexist alongside goddesses, meteors, parolees, anorexics, acid attack victims, refugees, circuses, reservation casinos, fantastic beasts, and a dwindling water supply. In REQUIEM FOR A ROBOT DOG, Lauren Scharhag considers the existence of angels and aliens equally plausible. She explores the dawn of the third millennium with all its darkness and light, bringing both the mythical and the mundane under her lens. Technology is both our bane and our solace, the conduit for human connection and facilitator of further alienation. Sure, there’s poverty, disease, and the bees are all dying, but there is also love, loyalty, and compassion, even if it comes in the form of a robotic canine. So come trip the rift. Find God. Find hope. And say a prayer for the dearly departed.
