🎃 Announcing the first title in our new Fiction list! 🎃⁠
⁠
I Saw Satan at the 7-Eleven by Christopher Brett Bailey.⁠
⁠
Fear and Loathing meets South Park in a screwball horror novella that's part romance, part buddy comedy and part body horror. ⁠
⁠
Two miles north of Hell, a nameless deadbeat narrator spots Satan buying soy milk at the 7–Eleven. Satan's a washed-up has-been, who’s totally lost his edge. That is until he falls in love with our narrator, and the two embark on a debauched misadventure, by turns slapstick, violent, whimsical, dreamlike and tender.⁠
⁠
Pre-order now for the special price of £6.66. (RRP £8.99, sale ends 5 Nov) 🩸

Happy publication day to 'I am ill with hope' by @gommie_poem. ⁠
⁠
Just before Christmas 2021 I got a call from @jdsrowland, who wanted to introduce me to his friend, a poet-artist who'd been looking for a publisher for his work. ⁠
⁠
Flash forward and the first book is published, with book No.2 on the way. ⁠
⁠
I'm so proud of this gorgeous work and can't wait to raise a glass to it later at @hoxtonbooks. ⁠
⁠
Copies sold through the website come signed by the author with a free postcard too!⁠

Happy publication day to The Story Behind... I Love You, Mum - I Promise I Won't Die by @wheellerplays & Annette Hulme + @dsmfoundation. ⁠
⁠
This poignant and eminently readable biography of the play is drawn from interviews with Dan’s family, friends and the OYT company.⁠
⁠
The book offers a unique and fulsome guide for teaching/studying this play and includes a detailed scheme of work for teachers using the play as a set text in the GCSE Drama examination.

Publishing May 2023: Before We Go Live by Stephen Flavall⁠
⁠
Streaming video games is now a billion-dollar industry. In 2022, Twitch alone has over 140 million active monthly users, with top players earning millions each year. But success breeds envy, and when big money’s being made, everyone wants a piece.⁠
⁠
In Before We Go Live, professional streamer Stephen Flavall, aka ‘jorbs’, invites the reader behind the scenes of this new frontier.⁠
⁠
From the boardrooms of LA to doctors’ offices in the Midwest, dealing with trolls and stalkers to mingling with crypto scammers and ruthless opportunists, Before We Go Live is both a true story about the dark realities of streaming and the tale of a deep and enduring friendship.⁠
⁠
It’s about what happens when real life intersects with entertainment, and learning to act with kindness and humour in an online world full of prejudice and abuse.⁠

#Brickwork A Biography of The Arches is on tonight at Glasgow's Aye Write Festival (@ayewriteglasgow). ⁠
⁠
Nightclub, theatre, creative hub, party place, The Arches was one of the most important venues in Scotland.⁠
⁠
Two former employees, novelist @kirstin.innes (Scabby Queen, Fishnet) and comedian and actor David Bratchpiece have collaborated on this definitive book in which the people who made the venue get to tell their story. Piecing together accounts from directors, DJs, performers, clubbers, artists, bar tenders, actors, audiences and staff, Brickwork writes the biography of a space that was always more than its bricks and mortar.⁠
⁠
They're joined by Arches founder Andy Arnold for what should be a fascinating conversation. There's tunes too. ⁠
