 Arcane Publishing has been working hard behind the scenes, and we have some exciting plans for the next few years, but bringing those to fruition is a long and painstaking task! We are working on bringing in some funding, budgeting, plotting our next move... Miss Gish is working on her third novel, The Right Place, and has almost reached the 10,000 words mark! Nevertheless, progress is slow as finding time to write will prove to be a little bit tricky over the next few months... The good news is that we will be regularly driving around the landscape of the novel, especially the small village of Abbotsbury where most of the novel's action is located. Things are going to be a little bit quiet on this website in the next few weeks, but we hope to be able to announce an event taking place in November in Bristol! We will make an announcement as soon as the date has been firmed up... In the meantime, do head to Miss Gish's Blog to read about Dorset, inspiration and... BOOKS of course!  Arcane designer and vintage/antiques trader extraordinaire Matt ArtPix has a lot of events lined-up for the autumn and he is very excited about them! Read all about his constantly evolving stock and keep an eye on where you can go and meet him on his very entertaining and informative blog HERE. And don't forget! Matt ArtPix and Arcane Publishing have a lovely unit at The Customs House in West Bay, Dorset (East Beach) which is crammed with vintage and retro items, books and more! Here's what our second-hand shelf looks like at the moment:  And of course, there are copies of our two publications, I Am a Muse and The Book of Thoth for sale in the unit! We have a two-book bundle at a very good price!  We've been working hard at Arcane over the past fortnight, and today was our first proper outing in the gorgeous Dorset nature for over two weeks! We headed to one of our favourite places, Swyre Head on Purbeck. The views are stunning! Below, we're looking towards St Aldhem's Head; the manor house on the left is the enviably secluded Encombe House.  Looking towards the west, with Kimmeridge below, and to the left of the picture, very faint, the Isle of Portland, where our HQ is located... Today, we have definitely been reminded of the reasons we left the South East behind!  8/10/2019 By the sea... It is extremely windy here in Dorset, which can only mean one thing: BIG WAVES!
So we got out of Arcane/ArtPix towers to have a look-see... Arcane Publishing and Matt ArtPix had a brilliant time this weekend with two successful events! First up was the Somerton Vintage Market in Somerton, Somerset, on Friday 19th July. We had never been to beautiful Somerton and we are really glad we went! What a delight the city centre is! We had our stall in the Buttercross, a landmark dating from 1673. We took a few pictures of the buildings around us.
On Sunday, we were back to the Giant Shepton Flea Market in Shepton Mallet, Somerset, which is always packed with amazing traders - one of the drawbacks of trading there is that you can't browse the hundreds of fantastic stalls yourself! It is always a brilliant event. Here are a few pictures of the stall!
This Friday, Arcane Publishing will attend the Somerton Vintage Market in lovely Somerset. We'll only have a small corner of Matt ArtPix's stall but we will have some lovely books for you! Here are pictures of our stock for this Friday! It's from 10am to 2pm. See you there!
  Arcane Publishing and Matt ArtPix had a brilliant day yesterday at the always lovely Bridport Vintage Market. The weather was perfect and we met and chatted to interesting people, which is always a bonus! I have posted below a few pictures of our stall. Some of the books will now find their way to our unit at The Customs House in West Bay (on the second floor!). Our Russian posters attracted a lot of attention! Unfortunately, we had forgotten the labels for them - and therefore couldn't give people the full details! These are pretty special posters from the 1930s which had been reprinted in the 1970s. Find the information below (and those labels are now safely stuck to the posters so we do not forget them ever again!).
 It has been a while, but finally, we can confirm that Arcane Publishing will be attending the fab Bridport Vintage Market with Matt ArtPix this Sunday 30th June. We will bring a few bundles of Miss Gish's books, and also a limited amount of stock, mostly some of our latest finds! Her here the books we'll be taking on Sunday: 
5/31/2019 In our unit this week...We visited our unit at The Customs House (West Bay, Dorset) today to add some stock, ready for June!
5/30/2019 Children's books delivered to our unit! Tomorrow, Friday 30th June, we will be delivering our big basket full of beautiful children's books to our unit at The Customs House in West Bay, Dorset!
We've got classics, vintage books, poetry books, books about animals and others about pirates, a few books from Australia and New Zealand... There is something for everyone... And our prices are very low! |
