Atthis Arts, a family owned and operated press, is doing a fund drive to cover unsexy things like operating costs, and sexier things like publicity and new projects.

Atthis Arts has published a lot of great work.1 Last year’s lineup included Embroidered Worlds: Fantastic Fiction From Ukraine and the Diaspora, Rosalind’s Siblings, and Pluralities. Coming soon is work like Heretic, the conclusion of Gregory A. Wilson’s Gray Assassin trilogy, and a translation of The Factory, a novel by Igor Mysiak, who was killed in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Independent presses like Atthis Arts do a lot with very little. Take them away and the literary space becomes much less varied and vital.

Atthis Arts is trying to get to $15,000 on a GoFundMe campaign. Check out the April Rally page for more information on other ways to help.

Look what arrived!

Love the cover design. And the cover has an interesting almost soft touch feel to it - maybe from the independent printers?

Very good work, so happy to have backed this project and with what I've received. Thanks to everyone at Atthis Arts and all who worked on bringing this to life.

And of course, thanks to all the writers for providing their works!

Слава Україні!

Here's a neat video of #EmbroideredWorlds bookplates being printed on vintage equipment for @atthisarts. (I have seen much larger presses at work, and for some reason this one is more terrifying.)

Surprise! (To us also!) We've decided to take extended orders for Embroidered Worlds on BackerKit through 12 November - and we've put the digital swag bag back in play! If we can reach $25K in support, ALL Kickstarter AND BackerKit backers (all levels, $1+) will receive this multimedia pack of original FUN.

Also - this is the LAST chance (really, really) to get the campaign-only bookplate with your print copy. #Ukraine #EmbroideredWorlds
