Indie Culture – Best of 2010, Preview of 2011 01 Jan 2011      

Here’s me usual round-up of the best books, flicks and music discovered in the last 12 months plus, for the first time, a list of things I'm looking forward to reading, seeing and listening to in 2011...



Antichristmas issue of Beat the Dust 12 Dec 2010      

To end the year, a fine Antichristmas issue of Beat the Dust...and not a jingly bell or silent night in sight, thank da lord. Just quality words from writers we’ve never published before, others we have and some of those with pieces they’re not normally known for writing...



Protest! on the Small Press Favourites’ List 25 Nov 2010      

Protest!, the long short fiction anthology produced by Beat the Dust Press has been included on a list recommending “small press favourites.” The list was compiled by the Small Press Library blog run by writer, Karen Lillis, and is put together annually. The featured books were nominated by small press authors, editors and booksellers. Big ta to David Hoenigman for the nomination. Better than a poke in the eye with a shitty stick, I think you’ll agree...unless you like that kind of thing, in which case you are a pervert who needs help.
