We're delighted to share the cover of Ursula K Le Guin Prize winner Rebecca Campbell's debut short story collection, The Other Shore. The cover art is BC artist Kerry Pagdin's "The Death of Ostara," a perfect match for Campbell's unsettling west coast speculative fiction.
Pre-orders are now open on our website:

Spring is in full swing - that is a clue for a cover to be revealed later today! We were thrilled to work with a new BC artist for Rebecca Campbell's west coast focused short story collection, The Other Shore.
If you loved the Le Guin Prize winning Arboreality you will want this on your TBR!

A little out of my typical choices, but I truly have never read (nor seen any film versions) any of this stuff! No, the whole series isn't here, but I plan to cover (just about) all of it!

We had a blast last night at the Earth Day Eve launch of Through the Portal and The Origins of Desire in Orchid Fens. Lynn Hutchinson Lee even brought spring peepers with her to set the swampy vibe.
Orchid is now available everywhere books are sold! Congrats Lynn!

Another great book from Canadian author Adam Shoaltz. In his newest book โwhere the falcon fliesโ he canoed and hiked from Lake Erie to the Artic (North of Labrador)
All his books are quite good if youโre into adventure stories and all his trips are within Canada which makes it even more amazing.

COMING UP! on Earth Day Eve, April 21:
Enjoy stories and poems for a hopeful dystopia for the launch of the THROUGH THE PORTAL anthology, then stick around for Lynn Hutchinson Lee's haunted fens and vengeful water spirits. A bit of a mixed vibe but Earth needs everything we can give her right now.
