The world’s on fire right now and if you could use a good laugh, I have news for you! A new comedic ScfiFi anthology from Page Turn Press (NOT the same as that scammer press with a similar name) is out today.
Forgetting Something? is a compilation of fourteen humorous tales featuring aliens getting up to various shenanigans. How can that not give you a giggle or two?
Within the pages, you will find some amazing authors and hilarious tales. My own story — “Jason Mimosa and the Search for the Hipster King” — is probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever published.
Not to be missed is the foreword, where the stories are introduced by the remarkable Ai Jiang. (I’m not just saying that because she mentioned mine is one of her favorites in the book. lol Go read her stuff. Seriously.)
Now listen, I know the collective “We” isn’t shopping today, and I totally am onboard with that. Also remember, small presses and indie authors are somewhat reliant on the big distributors. Pulling back the curtain a little bit, for my own books I make almost twice on a paperback sale at Amazon as I do through an indie outlet. It’s sucks, but we’re just trying to put good stories out there and the options are not ideal.
I get the buying blackout. But maybe put the book in your basket tomorrow. I also get not wanting to shop the evil conglomerate. Perhaps ask your indie bookstore to order it for you if they can.
Anywho, I do hope you get a chance to read it. This is a not-to-be-missed book and we could all use a little humorous escapism right about now.
