Who we write for

We write for the rebels. Rebels that are obsessed with pop culture and question everything, especially authority. Punks, emo kids, goths, nerds, geeks, outlaws, bandits, and rebels, these are our tribe. People that grew up outside the system until that system realized it was "cool" to be like them, as if we did it because it was cool. Our tribe doesn't move to the back of the bus. They burned their bras and have never seen a protest they didn't like. They stand up for what's right even when it's unpopular. They don't care what anybody else thinks. 

We demand to be entertained as much as we want to think deeply about real issues that matter. We want our stories to have a message, but we want that message hidden under a thick layer of action and fun.

We find humor in the dark places of the world. The darker the better. The more humor the better. We want to shine light in the dark corners and show there's humor there too, in the places we're not supposed to go. 

How we started

In 2014, I was a dejected writer, lost in obscurity. I had been writing for years with very little to show for it. Small press publishers released a couple of my books, but they did a miserable job handling them. They screwed up release dates, never promoted my work, and, worst of all, made me no money.

It pissed me off something fierce and I vowed to do something about it. Instead of entrusting my success to somebody else, I decided to take my career into my own hands. I bought all the rights back to my titles and struck out on my own. 

I successfully funded a Kickstarter for my first graphic novel, Ichabod Jones: Monster Hunter, in 2014, and launched my first slate the following year. In 2016, we launched our second slate, including the wildly popular Katrina Hates Dead Shit ( aka Katrina Hates the Dead). Those two books were so successful, we released them in hardcover the following year.

We also launched a book division in 2016, which made wonderfully weird genre books which are as entertaining as they are thought provoking. 

Now, we create beautiful, weird books of all types. We don't create the most books every year, or the cheapest book on the indie market, but we do create the best ones, printed in the most beautiful way possible.
