Happy mail day to me! a new one from @vanwinkle.bsky.social
I hate when the rapture is scheduled late in the day. I'd rather just get on with it already.
I'm happy to announce a little publishing endeavor I'm starting. I can't wait to share details with you on one of the first projects. It's a definitive example of why I wanted to do this, and I can't wait to share details, hopefully this spring!

This is such fun news to share: The Silverbacked Punk Project is coming along and ready to release the first book by someone other than me. Out soon, "Songs from the Blimp Ruins", a beautiful collection by Pat Foran @pdforan.bsky.social
. More about the project at alkratz.com.
Check out @theburninghearth.bsky.social new project, a children's book illustrated by her daughter. I was lucky to see this one come together and am looking forward to reading it with my grandkid gang.

Here is an early peak at part of the back cover to @pdforan.bsky.social upcoming book, "Songs from the Blimp Ruins". Thank you to these four awesome writers for sharing their love for the collection!
I reviewed The Morgue Keeper by Ruyan Meng. Check it out at @hfr.bsky.social and check out the book. It's such a memorable book.
