Life's simpler tales. Our essence encapsulated within anecdotes. The vibrancy of being you, with any caveat shrugged off like "this is my story, and what a story it is"

Allow yourself to celebrate you.

Whilst we furiously prepare for the next book, submission updates and all that fun stuff, this.

I have been a supporter of many causes relating to mental health over the years. Having had a bad episode once upon a time, I am very aware of how easy it is to fall into these traps again.

This short does focus on men, but of course the problem extends far beyond that reach. Look after yourselves. Speak to that person. Dont allow yourself to fall into the f*cking trap.

Introducing to you the first in a few sketches to get your inspiration flowing for our upcoming project.

The new (as yet untitled) project will focus on the lived experiences from people of a UK-Filipino perspective. However this connection is gotten, we would love to hear from you - your opinions and ramblings. All feedback is absolutely welcome!

Hello all.

A little bit more on the project myself and .is.chichi have been preparing.

We all have stories about our experiences being Filipino. Whether mainland or differwnt land all together, each story is as unique and vibrant as the people that tell them.

We will be opening submissions specifically for the UK-Philippines element. I am born in the UK, as too is Chi and this is an opportunity to get your stories out there in the world and for us to start building the legacies the generation before us may nit have had the chance to do.

More concrete details will follow over the next few months, but for now your feedback and opinions matter.

You can message me or Chi your thoughts on the subject and whether this interests you at all.

Reposting helps spread the word, so please feel free to do so.

Our next project is confirmed.
More details will be posted in atypical A Tree In Bani fashion. That is, "regular".
Whatever that means...

Real stories. Real people.
Archiving lived experiences.

We are all but our life stories.
Inevitably.

Changed the logo back an earlier version.
No real reason other than I liked it better.
No real reason other than superstition.
No real reason other than projects almost brewed.
No real reason other than the website will be revised and up and running again soon.
No real reason other than life having its funny turns and the everyday of an editor is a severely traumatic and inconsistent one full of pitfalls and overwhelming wins and laughs and tears at almost not quite the same time but so close in between they may as well squish together into one mega experience called bleh.

Hi all, just a lil update cos we've been quiet for the past few months...

It has been insanely up & down for us over the last few months - a map of our anxieties would produce something akin to an earthquake reading I think but this is something we all have to weather at certain points in our lives.

Social media in general has been as erratic with some really low points that have contributed to my leaving it alone for a while, considering packing it up altogether many, many times.

But we're still here with a healthy booklist and with plans for future titles. Thank you to everybody who has supported - I was honestly nervous about reopening this IG account. I have a few messages to go through still and my sincere apologies for any delay.

Summertime has hit London in a good way, so if you are around town enjoy it while it lasts. If you are from a part of the world where sun is common, then maintain and do you lol. If none of the above apply, a new book or graphic novel is a cert to fix your mood!

Take care all,

Danny

Rurok: An anthology collecting a diverse set of artwork and stories of a more mature variety.

I still have a copy left available on the site (it isn't something I usually advertise here) - final copy and most likely will not be restocked!

I'll update more this coming month. February was something of a creative blackout for me. Apologies if I haven't been on it this month!

I haven't posted in a lil' bit, but that's to be expected right?

We are currently preparing to stock our little shelves with more titles, we will announce these once finalised. All books are in stock, but some are dangerously low in stock.

We are also preparing for a few book productions this year, the main topic being male mental health which is an often overlooked topic and one not really in the public sphere. As somebody who has his fair share of anxiety throughout the years, I feel that this is a topic that needs to be documented somehow, even just to raise awareness.

If you are suffering from anxiety or depression, regardless of gender, cultural background etc, it is vital to keep it in check by honest self evaluation and via a trusted confidant. Suffering ain't the one if you're on your own, so by whatever means - and taking into account that you are deserving of the same happiness you see around you - consider sharing your thoughts to people you can trust.

Also stop scrolling down these feeds for too long. I keep on saying this, dang it!

Again, if you've conquered the previous paragraphs you are a true reader therefore thirty percent off your next buy thru the website using this (UVEREACHEDTHISFAR) code.
