Are you an #independentpublisher or #smallpublisher who wants me to stock your books at the my events over the next few months at which I'm able? Give me a holler. I'd be happy to help. The only thing I'd ask in return is the same from you. No fees or anything. I think we could help one another.

I'm told it's #PublisherFriday, and that as an #IndependentPublisher, I ought to mention the book that is being published on Monday. It's my own "Punctilious Punctuation," in which I talk about the history, usage, misusage, and much more about the punctuation marks.

A mind-bending meditation on death, decay and what we make of the precious little time we have, i’m a little fruit fly is a bold, genre-defying debut that reveals something different with every reading.
