A book cover for The Walls are Closing in on us by Joshua Trent Brown. A very dark green snake coiled up that appears to be floating above a black and white image of ravine. A horizontal rip splits the image just above the halfway point with a blurb by Austin Ross, author of Gloria Patri. The quote says “…a book that examines not only the soul of a man but—perhaps—the soul of a nation.”

Got this today! The Walls are Closing in on us by @joshuatrentbrown.com! This is such a beautiful cover. Done by @johnchrostek.com beautifully done, man! Can’t wait to read it

Hailey is an amazing person. I've talked with her on zoom hundreds of times and have been blown away by her creativity and good humor.

If enough people gave $5 today, she could get out of debt and get her life back. Please help if you can spare $5. <3

a hardcover copy of Exit Ghost ( (Exit Ghost book cover: a black background with a wisp of smoke curling up, a sketched/stylized sun with an eye in the middle of it in the upper left corner, a sketched hand in the lower right corner wearing a ring in the first finger, with the same eye in the palm, with a single tear falling from it, "Exit Ghost" above it in a cursive/handwrite-y font, Jennifer R. Donohue to the bottom left in the same font. ) leaned against a driftwood log on Asbury Park beach, with sand and the ocean beyond, and a partially-submerged jetty of dark rocks in the water

Last day!

Amazing picture. Makes me even sadder I couldn't be there. What a fun night it had to be!

having met and spent time with 85% of these guys, can concur

not all American white guys have fallen into toxicity and it’s a miracle of alan’s taste that @malarkeybooks.bsky.social has published so many decent dudes

(he’s also published a buncha ladies but we weren’t there last night, lol)

My time with this journal is done, but it’s been a joy and an honor to read and help publish work by so many great writers over the last few years

She is going to tell you about it, too.

It is a stunning ring.

Amazing cover, Devan!

Wish I could help. Even at the best of times my reviews were mainly "I liked this, read it so I can scream about it without spoiling it!" Lol. Though, I do find that starting with how it makes you feel is pretty effective.
