Winter Tidings

2010/12/14

Festive reader,

Have you finished all of your holiday shopping? No? Have you considered some fine Canadian fiction for that special someone? Order now and we’ll throw in a limited edition Workhorsery book cover. And until Christmas, you can get both Pitouie and You and the Pirates for just thirty dollars. Signed by the authors! Wow!

But maybe you finished your holiday shopping this weekend at the Small Press of Toronto book fair. In that case, we hope you enjoyed your time there as much as we did. The Grand Hall is such a delightful venue for book shopping. Did you meet our wonderful new friends from Inhabit Media?

Insight MediaThey came all the way from Nunavut! To sell books from Nunavut! Another gift idea for you.

Naturally, we enjoyed meeting up with all our old small press friends at this holiday small press fair, but we were especially delighted to see Ottawa friend Adam Thomlison, who was gracious enough to be Pitouie‘s latest celebrity endorsement.

We cannot guarantee that the stories will be good because we are publishers, not authors. But we will do our best to entertain you in some way, this we can promise you. We will even offer advice if you are stuck in holiday blues. We will do what we can. Because we love you.
