Our final hurrah of sorts. We received a lot of support when we entered the industry at 404 Ink, so feels only fitting to try do the same on our way out.

Coming soon! The 404 Ink Bursary for small presses and accompanying crowdfunder will launch in mid-March. This will give away at least £3,000 to small presses - we hope to raise more to pay it forward to even more people.

I wish we were launching this in the halcyon days of a better Twitter when we had much more reach but hopefully there's some aspiring publisher or currently struggling publisher (lol, aren't we all) who might need this and see it!
Bursaries for small presses coming very soon!
UK chums, this is a full five-alarm fire. Write your MP, call them, whatever. The government’s own survey showed 97% of us wanted copyright strengthened, and those abject fucks are weakening it anyway to appease snake-oil grifters and thieves

The industry is not supporting small-press publishers enough, not because it ought to, but because small-press publishing is the future of book production in this country, says Lucy Mercer in our recent Comment piece 👇 #BookSky

‘I’m not just putting on nice plays’: I spoke to Hollywood star Alan Cumming about his plan to reignite theatre in the Scottish Highlands
www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/n...
For all it's worth, during my time working with Alan last year around the Kelvinside Compendium showed me he's the real deal, really cares about Scotland’s culture and is bringing all his power to the role with as much diligence as possible. Naysayers will moan but action will speak for itself.
