Collected Narratives update: we're expecting to get books printed by the end of January, with shipping likely happening mid-February. I'm very sorry for the delay in getting this work out, as 2023 was a difficult year for us, but we're hoping to hit the ground running for 2024.
Now rolling out on our store: collection bundles! If you purchase a whole series, enjoy a solid discount on your order🧡
Apologies for the recent radio silence - things have been very busy and complicated here, as we're in our last year of university and Alex has started a day job again. We're getting caught up on outstanding orders this morning!

If you're thinking "well physical books are all well and good but I'm more of an auditory sort of queer myself," good news there as well! We are now officially at libro.fm/sweetreadsict! When you select us as your bookstore, the money you spend on audio books comes back to us ^^
It's here! Wichita Pride 2023 is underway @ Century II and we're all set up. Come say hi and get your books <3
We're at HIV Testing Day @ MCare! Positive Directions is providing free HIV tests for the community, with vendors around for folks to check out. This is our first 'virtual event', so we have display stock but all sales will be shipped or picked up with a 5% discount on all stock!

Our newest book, Collected Narratives, is still available for pre-order. It is a speculative fiction anthology of works by @humvadev and all pre-ordered copies will be signed by her.
Won't you gaze into the spaces between with us?

For all the new followers: Hello! There's so many of you, and we're absolutely floored by the amount of support we've gotten this week.
I figure a thread about what our deal is is warranted, and it's about time something like that was written anyway. READ ON:
We're an indie bookshop in Wichita, Kansas, and seek to stock and provide unique queer literature that is difficult to find in print elsewhere, including our own published works: Emptied Spaces & (soon-to-be-released) Collected Narratives

PayPal has reversed their decision regarding our account! We will once again be able to accept payments through them later today. A massive thank you to everyone who showed us support and who continues to do so 💙

PayPal has deemed us no longer fit to do business with and terminated our business account. We can still process through other payment services and are currently making sure shop functionality is not impacted.

Update on the third-run Emptied Spaces orders: we've received all the copies this past week, and will probably be shipping them out starting this Saturday!
Hello, #TransRightsReadathon! We're an indie bookstore in Kansas run by a transbian couple, late last year we published a horror anthology composed of majority-trans authors, and we've just started a whopping third(!) print run of the first volume.
In celebration of the anthology getting a Goodreads listing & recruitment beginning for Vol 2, we're starting another print run of Emptied Spaces! If you didn't hear about it in time during the last run, now's a great time to get a physical copy!

All excess profits from this go to Trans Lifeline, so if you want a collection of excellent stories and to support a good cause, please check out our store: we stock a wide variety of indie queer and trans works! 💖🏳️⚧️
