Welcome to Litsy!

#BOOKMAIL I found out about this sequel to The Wind in the Willows when I was looking up #indiepresses for the photo challenge last month and preordered it. It looks beautiful and adds some much needed female characters into the mix with Ratty, Moley, Toad, and Badger.

#catchingup on #anditsaugust #day28 - #indiepresses

Courtesy of Third Lung Press, with yet another shout-out to my former "Media" and "Southern Jewish History" professor Terry Barr.

This book comes from Curbside Splendor, which is a cool name for a company and this is a great book title. #IndiePresses #AndItsAugust

For the #indiepresses prompt, I'm giving a shoutout to Loose Moose Publishing, a small press based in Prescott, AZ that has been doing a wonderful job enthusiastically promoting my brother's first novel, SHAMELESS DICK: ODYSSEY OF A CAD. For Litsy poets, note that Loose Moose is currently accepting submissions for its next anthology. www.loosemoosepublishing.com.

The third installment in the Billy Boyle series shifts the backdrop to Sicily and opens with quite a hook, as our hero has amnesia!! It's another fast-paced and fun read and I can't wait to see what happens next! #IndiePresses #AndItsAugust @RealLifeReading

#AndItsAugust #day28 #IndiePresses I have a lot of Indie Presses on my shelves these days. So many more than I had prior to joining Litsy. This is one of the many reasons I love being here, I would never have heard of these books & houses without it. We have Relief Map-Tin House Books, My Life With Bob-Henry Holt & Company, The Curse Of Jacob Tracy-Thomas Dunne Books, Spoonbenders-Riverrun & Stan And Nan-Jonathan Cape.

Verso is one of the #indiepresses I heard about after joining Litsy. I went a little nuts with radical feminist books there recently. #anditsaugust
