We are very pleased to have been selected and we hope that this will become a regular spot for us... Maybe not every months, but several times in the year would be good! We have some more exciting events lined up for you for the rest of the year, but we need to confirm them first before announcing them. Watch this space! Below are a few new acquisitions from this weekend. I would like to concentrate on fashion, music and classic cinema icons and glamour for So Vintage, so I was really thrilled with some great finds! 80s fashion with some great illustrations! The book itself is not vintage, but it features reprints of some of most outrageous pages from Cosmo 1970s and 1980s! Super for fashion students and fashion history nuts! 100% perfect condition! And now for the gents... Really wonderful book, and 100% perfect condition! I have also acquired some cute books! Bod was apparently very well known... This is a first edition, 1966! This goes for £50 in ebay, by the way... What a find! This is just lovely... 1972 edition. And always popular on our stall...Peanuts! A lovely 1980 set of five! Now we have to get ready for our stall on 5th July! We will post about our stock in the forthcoming days!

6/7/2014 Book Talk interview: Steve PottingerMiss Gish is really proud to present her interview with poet and publisher Steve Pottinger, founder of Ignite Books. Steve Pottinger has given us some great tips about indie publishing and has even typeset our first novel, I Am a Muse!
You will find the interview HERE... We promise, it's a great read! There are also a couple of videos to watch! Enjoy... And remember, on the same page, if you scroll down, you will find the cracking interview we did last month with the fabulous Jordan Reyne! (You can also read the interview HERE) 5/21/2014 The Right PlaceWe have now sorted our publishing schedule - and budget - for The Right Place, our third novel. The provisional pub date is November 2017. It looks like a long way, but it takes a lot of time and hard work to get a novel published... We have worked out all the crucial stages...
Carya Gish has started a series of author/publishers interviews on her website. She is thrilled to present to you the first in the series called "Book Talk". And what a way to get started! An in-depth interview with the very talented Jordan Reyne, whose first novel, Remembering The Dead, is out now.
What began as a "Book talk" became something else altogether. Really, really interesting. Subjectivity in the way we interpret history - very fitting with the current debate surrounding WW1 "celebrations" - as well as philosophy, music, the fluidity of language(s), writing, self-publishing, storytelling, surviving... It's all in there and more. Read Jordan Reyne's interview HERE. Arcane Publishing author Carya Gish and designer Matt ArtPix both appear in the brand new issue of V&OAK magazine (Vintage and One of a Kind).
There is a small feature about Matt ArtPix and a whole page review of I Am a Muse! Read Carya Gish's blog about the review HERE. There are loads of interesting features in the magazine and everything is high quality and elegant... V&OAK is distributed to most newsagents in Central London and is also available in Harrods and Selfridges! There are more stockists around the country; for the comprehensive list of stockists, go HERE. To buy V&OAK online, go HERE. To read more reviews and features on I Am a Muse, go HERE. Carya Gish now has an author page on the Squid Publishing Inc website!
We are thrilled to be in such good company: Ignite Books, Steve Pottinger and Joolz Denby are on there as well! |
