As an FYI, some of our titles are not on Apple Books because:

1. They don’t allow any “competitor links” (Anything not Apple)

2. They don’t allow “non-standard capitalization” but 2 of our poetry titles have this!

You can grab our books everywhere else books are available, & on our site

Took a chance on @interstellarflight.bsky.social mystery box and lookit! The books look fantastic and will go great with the ones I got at Ghoulish Fest this year. Get yourself books from a small press that will put Beam Me Up, Hottie on the box. 👀👀

It’s so much fun to get to publish these more academic articles at IFP. SFFH nonfiction is a thriving field and doesn’t get enough recognition.
