The Organization is Here to Support You - Charlene Elsby
@weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social
Great book.
A surreal, pitch-black satire of post-Covid corporate hell.
Shades of Ballard, Kafka, and Gilliam’s Brazil, but still totally its own thing.
Funny and bleak and dystopian. Seek this one out.
We don't just post dumb bullshit on the internet, we also publish weird ass rad books which you can buy with hard earned (or soft stolen) money from either our website (US only) or most places you buy books (worldwide).
I'm actively working to find horror/Weird/queer/speculative fiction tabling events for Cursed Morsels this year. I've applied for a couple local ones (OddMart Sundays and Book Fair for Adults), but are there any events within a few hours of the Twin Cities folks would recommend?
Yesssssssss
Just finished reading the best Corporate Horror I’ve laid eyes on:
THE ORGANIZATION IS HERE TO SUPPORT YOU by @charleneelsby.bsky.social.
Pick up a copy from @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social
V for v excited.
I forgot to tag @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social too! Go buy their books and support fresh indie Weird Horror!
I mean if all you were getting was a TRIBUTE ANTHOLOGY TO KATHERINE DUNN (??!!) that would be sufficient. but there's so much more!
Ghoulies forever!

Sara is incredible! Thanks for giving this a read!!
Finishing up this cool little collection from @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social. This story from Sara Century, about an isolated woman who discovers an eye growing in the wall of her apartment while the world outside crumbles into chaos, really hitting hard rn.
Fuck yeah! 🔥🩸⚔️
Heartened by the recent resurgence of interest in sword & sorcery. I bought this book, "Profane Altars: Weird Sword & Sorcery," from Minneapolis' @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social last year and greatly enjoyed it. Hope they release more. #sword&sorcery #fantasy #booksky
Thanks so much! We're also for the lefties!
For you weirdos out there, there's also @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social and @cursedmorsels.bsky.social (I feel like there's another press but I can't remember!) For you lefties, there's www.boneshakerbooks.com; for the SF crowd, dreamhavenbooks.com has strange & collectible used books.
🙏🙏🙏
A Minneapolis friend @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social recommended these two organizations:
Monarca (monarcamn.org)
Immigrant Defense Network (immigrantdefensenetwork.org)
This is literally my neighborhood.
Fuck ICE. Fuck these fucking nazi scumbags.
Do em like Mussolini.
I'm so behind! I owe you all an email!! Sorry!!
Found in the wild in Australia (and sneakily turned face-out)
@michaelwehunt.bsky.social @horrorsong.blog
Ha ha, thank you for the stealth marketing boost! 😅
I'm amazed indie book The Wingspan of Severed Hands is on the shelf in Australia. And nestled between Stephen Graham Jones and Stephen King. Wow.
Sam @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social check it out!

Our emails are full of discounts and sales, but supporting indie presses allows them to keep weird art alive while anti-consumer AI shit threatens our existence. It means supporting authors. If you're in a place to support folks today, 10p is among the best places to do so if you ask me. 💀💜🤘
Also, there are a lot more out there. Check out
@malarkeybooks.bsky.social @clashbooks.bsky.social @cursedmorsels.bsky.social @weirdpunkbooks.bsky.social @castaignepub.bsky.social @ghostorchidpress.com @timberghostpress.bsky.social @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social @ghoulish.bsky.social today too!
Thanks so much! Love you both to absolute death!!!

2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.
Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀
IT'S VITAL TO SUPPORT indie pubs that encourage risk & diversity. Here's a 🧵 of em you can support directly:
