M Presents Publishing

The game SCP:0 is coming to an end in a few days on Kickstarter. We are only at 23% but there's still time to support the project! In the event that the project doesn't get funded in the next few days, the core books will release and at least once scenario will release relatively immediately for a higher price than backing the kickstarter. Two more scenarios are outlined and will release eventually, but that won't be immediate. Thank you for your support and please encourage your family and friends to support the campaign.

 LIMINAL MADNESS IS PROCEEDING AS PLANNED I finished choosing the stories to be published in Liminal Madness. Accepted authors have been contacted and the Author page on this website is slowly being updated. As expected, the number of stories warrants the release of a second anthology. That second anthology, tentatively titled 'Consuming Madness', looks to be roughly the same length and (while still liminal) leans more toward fear and paranoia. I confess that I'm excited by all of the stories, from those that are liminal in the popular sense, to liminal in the traditional sense, to stories of fear. To the point that I'm excited to share these stories as soon as possible. With that in mind, I intend to release both books as soon as possible. The plan is to release the digital version of both before Halloween (with 'Liminal Madness' released first) and, at least, 'Liminal Madness available as a physical book before the greatest holiday in horror circles.  With...

You wrote a book and it's out there for the world, and... you see a 1-star review on Amazon.  You will understandably question your life choices, especially if you did everything yourself or paid actual human money for services (if someone is accepting monopoly money, please let me know). But this isn't the time to give up; you're a writer, and negative feedback shouldn't send you into a tailspin of questioning and mixed family dynamics of failure.  But a 1-star or 2-star review can be useful for you, and you shouldn't let it ruin your day. Why Reviews Feel So Important A review is a different sort of feedback; it's usually unrequested. Now you might ask for a review but that's not typically the case. What you will likely be seeking, at least in the early stages of writing, is constructive feedback. You want this feedback to improve your craft, but a review of a published work can often leave you feeling depressed because it mentally attacks all of your inse...

 

 

  Back SCP:0 On Kickstarter!

 I'd like to thank all of the authors that submitted stories for the Liminal Madness anthology. I'm going to be reviewing the stories over the next few weeks and send out contracts once that is completed.  Once contracts are in I will begin the formatting phase. Expect publication in mid-late September. Additional information will be posted here as it becomes available.

 My very short story "The Cold One" will be appearing in Dark Holme Publishing's Dark Descent 2025 Anthology. Darkholmepublishing.uk

 Father's Day is approaching (at least while writing this, if you're reading it in the future, here are ten dad jokes from the past!), and every dad appreciates a good joke that elicits a groan . So here are 10 jokes, compiled by Valerie Moss, that dads can tell in exchange for laughs of pity. Enjoy! I'm reading a book about antigravity. I couldn't put it down. Want to hear a joke about a piece of paper? Nevermind...it's tearable . Why does the ghost always need more books? She goes through them too quickly. Why does an elephant use his trunk as a bookmark? So her nose  where he stopped reading. I just finished this book about Mount Everest. It was a cliff-hanger. A second glance is all that is necessary for a book re-view. I had plans to begin reading a book about sinkholes, but they fell through. What did the sketchbook say to the novel? I'm drawing a blank. What did one book say to the other? "I'd like to check you out." You've never read Ja...
