Happy Halloween

Image
 As a horror publisher, Halloween is a party at M Presents. If you haven't already picked up a copy, Liminal Madness  was just released last month. Don't forget about Madness by Firelight, Dead of Winter, Descent Into Madness, Enter Madness , or any of the other M Presents titles. If you're looking for a last-minute TTRP game to play, M Presents also has several titles for the Call of Cthulhu  roleplaying game by Chaosium and the recently released SCP:0  game offers players a chance to fight and capture horrors. I also recently ran a pair of victims...volunteers...the modern Call of Cthulhu  scenario: Undertow . I've linked the video below. Please subscribe to the YouTube channel (If the video doesn't play, you MAY have to go directly to YouTube to view it).

Holiday Shopping

 Holiday shopping in the United States is underway as people begin searching for deals to purchase toys and games for their children (or themselves). Buying books is no different, but there is an important date to remember: December 6, 2025. According to the printer M Presents utilizes through our distributor Draft2Digital, paperback print orders MUST be made before December 6th to ensure they arrive by Christmas (delivered by December 24th).  However, that date assumes there are no delays for any reason! Let's be honest, in the chaotic month of December, delays will happen. Packages might be sorted to the wrong location and rerouting can add days if not weeks, people get sick so production slows, and there is the ever-present risk of the printers running into technical problems. So order early; maybe put an order in before Thanksgiving. M Presents isn't offering any sales until the yearly after-Christmas ebook sale and any sales offered by retailers like Amazon and Barnes ...

Baker & Taylor is closing its doors!

 After nearly 200 years, the distribution giant Baker & Taylor is closing its doors. B&T was almost the exclusive distributor of books to libraries, but that exclusivity has been in doubt over the past several years as distributors such as Hoopla, Overdrive, and Palace (to name a few) have pushed into the space with the rise of digital book lending.  If any library has used B&T to order a book or two from M Presents, I thank you and I thank B&T for handling that distribution. Now, aside from digital distribution, getting into libraries will not be as easy. If you're interested in helping get M Presents titles at your local library, you might be able to help! First, ask if the library can carry one (or all) of our books. Like I said, libraries have options and if there is a demand they will be open to carrying the title. Also, and this comes with a financial burden to you, most libraries accept donations of books on their shelves (provided they have the space) b...

Draft2Digital Announces Minimum Payment

 Draft2Digital is implementing minimum payment thresholds for any payment methods that previously had no minimum. This change will take effect on November 1, 2025. This will affect the authors published by M PRESENTS PUBLISHING as the average per sale royalties are under $1 meaning some authors will not be paid unless upwards of 20 units sell. With that in mind, going forward, I will be leaving it up to individual authors if they want to continue to be paid directly from Draft2Digital or if they'd like a payment directly from me as I do when processing Amazon payments. This may affect how quickly I can get payments out as I have to wait for payments to come to me and then I can disburse them as appropriate (and, of course, I'll still be bound by the minimum payment threshold). In coming days I will be reaching out to authors, but publications in the future won't automatically be set up so Draft2Digital handles payments. While this is unfortunate and, as a sole proprietor, w...
