Quarter Press

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

I really love this! Super cool.

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.

I am in the same boat. Been using Spotify for too long. Supposedly, Tidal will import your playlists but I haven't confirmed that.

A copy of the novella The Nine Thoughts by Stefan Kiesbye

Love seeing past Quarter(ly) contributors putting new work into the world! Finished this novella and loved it! Dark and haunting in all the right/weird ways.
.
Check out Kiesbye's short story, "Agnes Under the Ice," in our W3IRD issue.

Apparently, the CEO is not a good person, so perhaps Tidal is a better option that will take your money? (This coming from a person on Spotify still...)

Hahahahaha! Love this so much!

As always, please tag or share with your writer and artist friends! Let me know if you ha e any questions, and I look forward to seeing what you create, or in this case, Animate!
