What is Oddity Prodigy Productions?

This is a simple question with a not so simple answer. Our elevator pitch is “We are a creative collective and small press publisher.” It’s possible to stop right there, but I don’t think it really does justice to what we’re trying to do.

The whole thing started a few years ago on a lunch break from a company where a few of us worked at the time. We all had decent jobs that paid the bills for a company that at the time was pretty stable. Despite all that, none of us were feeling very fulfilled creatively. The group there that day dabbled in writing, art, dance, costuming, and a million other pursuits. All of those were rewarding and gratifying and gave us a sense of accomplishment that can be lacking from the daily grind of a 9-5 job. What we talked about that day laid the groundwork for what would eventually become OPP. The foundation is at its core “How can we use our combined talents to lift each other up and share some of the burdens of finding creative success?”

Fast forward a few years and here we are. We have published our very first book, what we call ‘The Oddity Prodigy Primer’. It features pinups, art, short stories, comics and more. We look at it as our business card and also a way to prove to ourselves that we can do this. It’s proven to be an incredible success for us, having sold out at cons and shows and now going back for a second printing. More important for us is that we saw it through from start to finish and did it ourselves.

Now we’re in what I would like to call phase two of OPP. Phase one was starting out and proving we can do it. Phase two is about building. Right now we have a number of projects lined up, the biggest of which is ‘Scary Stuff’ our upcoming horror anthology. Currently, we’re taking submissions and have been absolutely overwhelmed with the response we’ve gotten and the quality of the submissions. Our goal is to make our anthologies a mix of established and new talent looking for a break. Thus far we’re on track for that with a number of established writers having submitted and some great stuff from people who haven’t hit the scene yet. It’s exciting!
