My big project has finally reached a start!

After a bit of a false start this morning with a website configuration issue, pre-orders for Zoe Storm's fantastic new books - The Heart of the Woods and Other Stories and the new edition of To Own the Libs are now live! You can order them here: https://antithesispress.com/shop/

If you'd rather order from your local bookstore you should be able to soon - we'll share an update when our distributor lets us know they're available everywhere!

The other exciting news is that we're open for submissions!

Https://antithesispress.com/submissions-2/

We have a priority submission period for folks who identify as both #BIPOC and #LGBTQIA+. After that we're open to all #LGBTQIA+ folks.

#LumpenJournal is open for submissions on the topic of work.
Would be interesting to receive something about AI from tech or creative workers' perspectives.
The idea of performing gender and transition as work would also be cool.
And if you want to rant about anything else from the current state of the job market, work that isn't considered work, shitty bosses or whathaveyou, feel free to check out this call:
