Have a day, Cody!

One cemetery you don’t wish to linger in too long. Even for loved ones. Enjoy this Afterimages fiction by @courtlandavenue.bsky.social now and with urgency. You won’t regret it. 🪦

Tuesday thoughts: are you friendly with your press mates? Do you feel obligated or genuine to connect and mutually uplift each others’ book? Did you sign a cultish clause in your contract? Let’s hear what you think

It is 2026. Amidst all the AI slop, shady MLM’s, inflation, and global unrest, there are still people that value the arts and humanity. You could’ve spent your money on anything else, but you decided to pay for a quality book from Thirty West. Thank you, on behalf of our authors.
