McNally launch of the Shared World project

Hello from Jonathan Ball

Strange Ink #6

Hello, Reader!

Please join me at McNally Robinson on Nov. 29 at 7 pm for a double book launch!

If you won't be in Winnipeg, or can't make it out that night, you can watch the simultaneous YouTube stream here. Bookmark it now!

Although Stranger Fiction (and its precursor company, Martian Embassy Media) has published other books (most notably, GMB Chomichuk's Moon Patrol comic), this is our first substantial foray into prose fiction.

I know what you're saying. What if I can't make the launch, but want a book? Well, soon you will have more options, but McNally is also selling books online that they can ship anywhere (or hold for pickup).

I am also going to be at the Fireside Book Market on Dec. 3 at the Park Theatre, alongside many other authors and publishers.

These are both can't-miss events in my books. Hope to see you there!

Stay strange,

Jonathan

Exciting times! 2024 promises to be...

Hello from Jonathan Ball We hit McNally's bestseller list! Hello, Reader! Stranger Fiction has TWO books on McNally's bestseller list this week! Of course, this is thanks to all of YOU! It's not uncommon to hit McNally's list if you have a well-attended launch. However, I still wasn't expecting us to hit it due to how we were launching two books. I thought people would buy one of the two and split the sales and dilute them in that way. But those of you who showed up really showed your...

Hello from Jonathan Ball Back in the Saddle of Evil Hello, Reader! I'm back in the saddle of evil. I keep saying this, hoping it will catch on. This time it's me, Jonathan, back after Lyndon's hijacking of the newsletter. Although maybe I shouldn't be! Lyndon's been doing a better job than me lately... A few things I wanted to tell you. First of all: Me, Myself, and Stranger Fiction will be at the Fireside Book Market TOMORROW (December 3). All the info is on this handy poster created by...
