Taking a break form all the sports to post another SSBA Finalist Spotlight. Today is Alvar Theo @alvartheo.bsky.social , author of Benothinged, a finalist in the Horror Category. @specawards.bsky.social www.blog.melodyemcintyre.com/2026/02/alva...

Did this months ago and I don't remember saying about 70% of these answers. But then, I read this at 1am this morning and I don't remember any of it now. Huge thanks to Melody for this, it was a pleasure!

In 2026, in Scotland alone, we're losing @404ink.bsky.social, @quindriepress.com & @hauntpublishing.bsky.social. I really want to see new nimble presses rise from the ashes but it's difficult to recommend starting a company in this market.

Very sad news. Huge thanks to @hauntpublishing.bsky.social and @beckywojturska.bsky.social for everything they've done for me over the last few years.

So sad to announce the closure of Haunt. I’ve been running this wee creepy press since 2018 and will miss it terribly 🖤

another sorry bit of news. I hate to see small presses shutter, especially when they're good places for writers to work with & committed to an expansive view of literature. if you haven't checked out a Haunt title yet, now's the time!

We are sad to announce the closure of Haunt Publishing this year. Rising costs, marketing difficulties & work/life balance issues are making it hard to thrive. We will formally cease trading on 1st June 2026. The Bookseller have the exclusive: www.thebookseller.com/news/scottis...
