Two books you've probably never heard of but should check out.

Alas, lost a backer last night so back to almost a Stretch Goal achieved. How it goes sometimes.

By a thin margin we have locked in the first Stretch Goal of the "Tea or Coffee, Stars, and Gravity" KS campaign and can now add 4 to 6 more authors to the budget. Info - www.kickstarter.com/projects/526...

Now that I have the afghan my mother made and one my grandmother made, and my recently made quilt, plus my hand quilted baby blanket & others I should build a quilt chest this spring since i am also a woodworker. Perhaps with a false bottom or secret till just for a bit of extra fun.

So close to stretch goal 1! Let’s keep the momentum going for the next book from @aanpress.bsky.social !

“Language itself seems set up in such a way as to detect the intruders for me. Few mistakes are purely technical. Almost all of them are my mistakes. And I cross out, and I correct, with the joy one can have at cutting a gangrenous limb from one's body.”

Stretch Goal Surge 3-Day Weekend is working on all caffeinated cylinders (SGs combined add up to 12 more authors). Currently 93% to SG1 & 81% to SG2.

Anthology collections I'd love to do but it is a snowball's chance (IP issues) ... Grimdark HR Pufnstuf, homage stories in Terry Dowling's Rynosseros universe, homage stories in E.C. Tubb's Dumarest of Terra universe, & of course a reprint of my holy grail - Crown of Infinity - by John M. Faucette.

This little rabbit adventure sold yesterday at a market and already I miss her. Probably will make more In this same landscape

Thanks for all the KS campaign reposts. The signal boost helps very much, especially as we are so close to funding.

One of my illustrators - @jessicapixie.bsky.social - is now on Bluesky. She did this frontispiece illustration for a book I am working on this year. Follow her on BSky and check out her web site shop at - www.jessicapixie.com. She is looking for publishing artwork jobs. Publisher friends take note.

AaN is now on the shelves at Stay Gold Books in Regent Square (www.staygoldbooks.com) Quirky and independent, just how we like our bookstores. Go browse or attend one of their many events.

If AaN were to ever do a final collection of The Librarian stories (tentative title - The Librarian Overdue) would definitely be using this image for the cover by our favorite stock image illustrator - Grandfailure
