🥀 Always Horny, Mostly Thorny 🥀
An anthology by the editors of Wrong Publishing (link is available in the bio!)
After announcing our hiatus, l asked our editors past & present if they’d contribute to a “goodbye”, mini-
anthology for Valentine’s Day. I asked if they’d do it to fundraise.
Featuring @bodyfluidslit , @aadelevine , @madeline.creates , Noura Sarayel, @rosejeanou , Ahurani, & @cherrypoppunk , this is a pay-what-you-can digital exclusive-starting at $1 because 100% of revenue will go to @onebodyinitiative (thank you @sirrudeen for the recommendation.)
Please consider sending love to Palestinians and refugees for some good lit. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Things are not ok. There's not a lot we can do as a random small press in Canada, but at the very least, gatekeeping books is not something we want to continue. I've decided now until forever, all our digital chapbooks are $0/pay-what-you-can. Sending love & lit <3
We love Spite. You should too—order yours today.
Transcript:
“At 15, the wizard experienced a horrible growth spurt and with it a variety of strange abilities. He suddenly found himself levitating his toast at breakfast. He coughed and set his sister on fire.
He always knew when he was about to time travel because his gums would bleed. For many years, this was his favorite gift. What bliss to be elsewhere. But the wizard has crippling social anxiety, no matter the century.
There’s a grainy photograph of him standing between George and Pattie Harrison. He leans awkwardly on the mantlepiece, wearing clothes that haven’t been invented yet.”
(From “The Wizard” in @anjelichapman ’s SPITE.)

“Anjeli Chapman’s writing feels like cracking open a fortune cookie: imbued with the sacrality of having stumbled upon a treasure and the spectrality of words that stick, trailing behind you in their haunting magnetism.” — @lydiamakrides
“A masterclass in incisive prose... Chapman guides us through the weeds of the human psyche with wit, wryness, and grace.” — @elizalgilbert
Wrong Publishing is saying goodbye, but first, you better get your hands on SPITE.

The good news is that preorders are open today for SPITE, the new fantastical fiction collection by Anjeli Chapman Wolf.
The bad news is this will be the last ever title from our press. I wish I could’ve done more, but for my personal health, I have to step back for an indefinite hiatus. I have been so thankful to everyone who has supported the press during its lifetime, and I promise you this book is a fantastic closer- so please enjoy it all the more.
✨ RELEASE DATE: AUG 31 ✨

We can't believe it's real, but "without a listener: a comedy" from our magazine's final issue made it into @sundresspublications 's Best of the Net.
A gigantic congrats to writer Amelia K, who is not on social media. Thank you for getting our name up there with your words.
