Having spent as much time as I have in the Omaha area, I was excited to hear that Omaha has a new indie publisher: EAB Publishing. Not that the area doesn’t have a lot going on writing wise, considering the stellar writing program up at UNO, The Bookworm (which just happens to stock Bones Buried in the Dirt), The Lincoln Underground, The Backwaters Press, and so on, but still. It’s not like Omaha is New York. This is exciting.
In addition to being a new publisher, EAB Publishing has a new lit mag called Midnight Circus. They just released their first issue, which you can check out for free right here. (You should. It’s a good issue, which I would even say if I didn’t know a bunch of the writers featured within its pages.)
This is just good news all around. Something cool is happening in Omaha, which as much as I make fun of it from time to time, is actually a pretty decent place. I wouldn’t have spent as much time there as I have if it wasn’t. It’s just cool that something nice like this is happening for Omaha.
