If you love books you should support small presses: “Indies are more likely to take a risk on a debut author, an experimental manuscript, or more thoughtful or difficult subjects. There are so many gems that deserve a wider audience than they achieve” - Peter Buck, Elsewhen Press #IndiePressDay 📚💙
Rabbits fed up of pacifism! Surrealism. Magical realism. Whimsy with environmental commentary: "An Orchid in My Belly Button" is a selection of short stories from the brilliant Katy Wimhurst, published last year by @elsewhen.press #IndiePressDay
It’s Indie Press Day, a day when you can help ensure that great books continue to be published by indie presses. The rest of the year it’s the big faceless corporate publishers who dominate the media. If you’ve loved a book, post about it today with #IndiePressDay …
