Mercury not even retrograde yet & the PULP laptop up and died last week. New one here! Wasn't able to print shipping labels for a hot minute, but orders are now getting out the door again today and tomorrow! As of tomorrow's mail run we'll be fully caught up as of orders dated last Friday.
George Ziel artwork from the cover of the book Whispering Gables. A woman with long blonde hair and a long, fitted black dress runs through very tall grass on a moon lit night, away from a mansion in the background.

Sad to hear that mass market paperbacks are about to become even more endangered. I'm gonna hold out hope that they become retro-cool, the way vinyl has lately, and have a resurgence. Whether that happens or not, I'll still be here holding a torch for them!

Disappointing - but *deeply* unsurprising - to see much in the way of small business support from Carney's budget... Still doing my best to hold the line on price increases and will do so at least for the remainder of 2025. Hoping very much I'll be able to hold prices steady into 2026 as well.

Reopening on or before Sep 13th with new Fall and Halloween releases. Shop will be open for Canada and select Int'l countries. US may not be on that list yet, until shipping becomes available again. Fingers crossed Canada Post or Chitchats gets something in place by 9/13 but not counting on it. :(
Closeup of cover art from Beelfontaine, a 1974 gothic romance novel by Saliee O'Brien. Art by John Duillo. A young woman in a long golden-yellow nightgown looks pensively off into the distance, her hand gently resting at her throat. In the background looms a turreted castle set against a moonlit sky. One upper window in the castle is lit & the rest are ominously dark.

Between Canada Post & Chitchats (my non-postal carrier), whoever figures out CUSMA/USMCA integration with the least friction will get my business. Both have systems in process, but right now: fewer question marks on the Chitchats side. So much uncertainty still. (Reopening announcement soon tho!)

Minor update: Had planned to get all sale orders out by Tuesday, but Shopify is having issues connecting with Canada Post, so that might delay things by up to a day. If it goes on longer than that I'll have to switch to our 3rd party courier instead. Still operating under TAT, even with the delay.
