Hi Everyone, this is Adam and I'm taking the reins of our Instagram account for a moment to say a big congratulations to our very own . She was just named one of the 40 Under Forty in publishing by BookCAMP magazine.

This is a well deserved honor, as Samantha is without question the truest example of what it means to Read Furiously. She is a champion of all our authors helping their voices be heard and finding ways to connect them with their readers. She is also a vocal advocate for literary activism and equity within the publishing industry. Read Furiously wouldn't be what it is today without Samantha's guidance and dedication.

Congratulations Samantha!

National Poetry Month is drawing to a close, but we still have plenty to celebrate. It's always nice to have a poem in your pocket and our One n Done series is designed to take your reading on the go.

Showboi by Jimmy Cullen is a beautiful performance narrative of finding the light within yourself

Wind to Space by Rowan Kilduff is an abstract poetry collection that reminds us to connect with nature

Tales from the Scrapyard by Nicole Zamlout will be out next "poem in your pocket" as she takes you on a fantastical journey reminiscent of her first poetry collection All These Little Stars

Bring the magic of poetry everywhere you go with the One n Done series.

Our newest title, Wind to Space: Poems & Sketches, is written by Rowan Kilduff, an eco-activist, photographer, and writer living in Poland.

For this pocket-sized treasure, Rowan Kilduff re-imagines the space of a poetry collection and creates a mixed media collection filled with abstract notes, confessional poetry, and sketches. Popular culture, eco-activism, and daily spontaneity make up these fascinating episodes of observing the environment.

Rowan describes his collection as:
"'Wind to Space' comes from a Buddhist meditation but also feels to me as an opening-up of possibilities, getting through separateness; the idea of being here in this place/space where it's all happening."

Right now, Wind to Space is part of our "Build Your Own Poetry Collection" where you can purchase 3 poetry titles for $30:

It's a powerful meditation on nature and our place within it, including the part we wish to play for the future. If you are looking for a moment to hold space for our beautiful planet, this is a great place to begin.

1. Can you remember the first time you saw a picture of the Earth? 2. Who are your neighbors (apart from humans)? Name them. 3. Think of a time when you m

We're here at Bell Works today! Don't forget to buy your mother a book for Mother's Day. Trust me, she never had time to read a book during the early years!

First is Lianne Cruz's heartfelt look at her journey from pregnancy to motherhood. She had a couple of unexpected firsts along the way, but she had love, family, and her art to guide her.

This book is so beautiful. It will make you laugh, cry, and then call your mom.

Furious Readers, we are *floating* from this review for Stay Salty: Life in the Garden State:

"It is one of those books you keep on the shelf to re-read again. This collection is both warm and inviting. This journey was like taking a vacation to the state without ever leaving my home."

This is the greatest compliment we could ever receive from a series that is truly a labor of love. We are so grateful for the readers who take a chance on small indie presses!

We at Read Furiously would also like to extend our deepest gratitude for the contributors of this anthology who made this gorgeous work of art possible.

Happy World Read Aloud Day! May today bring you wonderful reading memories. Today is a day to take a moment and celebrate the magic of reading and the lifelong friendship that books provide.

Our children's series, The Little Witch Academy, written by Laura Sass-Germain and illustrated by Matthew Germain, is the perfect companion for early reading libraries. Designed to be read aloud or as an independent read for ages 4-8, each title features a gentle storyline, adorable illustrations, and a complex, yet accessible, range of vocabulary and sentence patterns. The reader size is great for on the go, book baskets, or little bookshelves. (Link in bio!)

Whether you read to your kids, your family, your friends, your pets, or anyone, today we remember that reading is truly a gift.

01/13/2024

Start your day with a balanced reading diet (and breakfast). What better way to get the new reading year going than with our first release of the 2024?

Based on Elizabeth T***s's program series called "Isn't She Great" at the Hollywood Theater, this anthology is a collection of the most beloved female-centric comedies and the audiences who adore them. From 9 to 5 to Romy and Michele to the iconic Elle Woods, the essays in this collection build on our devotion to these films and continue the conversation around funny women and how these characters have shaped so many talented writers.

It's a love letter to funny women and the people who continue to be inspired by them.

"As long as a lady has a book with her, she will always have company...and a weapon."

Words have power and we are using our power for good with Isn't She Great, an anthology edited by Elizabeth T***s.

As Elizabeth T***s reminds us, there is a specific power in a funny woman. A woman who dares to laugh at the world and at herself. These movies made us strong and smart and sexy (and bend and snap a lot). At the end of the day, we remind ourselves when the world only tries to let us have a little, a little money, a little confidence, a little joy to go out and get the whole enchilada.

Isn't She Great is available wherever books are sold. Check out the link in bio for more details.
