Panel 3: the alien is pleading with the brain that they need to get a lot of things done. Panel 4: the brain is hissing like a cat. Panel 5: the alien simply says „ok then“

Five copies of the dice game, Two Old Cats, which was inspired by Over the Garden Wall.

As Over the Garden Wall season is in full swing, this little game has been moving FAST! If you're interested in snagging one this season, I'd suggest sooner rather than later. Otherwise, you'll probably have to wait until next year.

Nine years ago, I started this press, hoping to publish some zines. While doing that, I made some pins, then stickers, then tarot, then books, then a lit journal, then games, and here we are!
.
Thank you, to everyone who has supported me throughout the years! Here's to the next ? amount!

Talkdemonic might fit that vibe.

It was an interesting week in watches... #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday

Thank you very much! I do try to make every issue the best they can be!

Glad to have you a part of the issue!

In our last chapbook contest, we also published TWO of the shortlisted works, as they were too good to pass up! This one, LITTLE RED, by Tiffany Hsieh is still available in its limited printing run.
