A new Ask the Bard in which I tackle the question of knowing when it's time for a retcon, how to handle it, and what in the world it even REALLY is!

Under promise, over deliver. Limited run. High quality. Book-as-art. These are the cornerstones of what we bring to the table as an independent publisher in the physical book space.

Here’s the Not-So-Secret Reveal: JoyPunk Isn’t About Feeling Better
JoyPunk isn’t a self-care scheme or a promise to solve all your self-doubt behind a masterclass paywall. It’s not “gratitude journaling.” It’s not “finding the silver lini…
