<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">"With the wit and heartbreak of Amy Hempel, the satirical eye of George Saunders, and the "we're on this earth to fart around" mentality of Kurt Vonnegut, the 258 micro-chapters of Ryan Werner's Soft tell the story of a failed rock band on tour. In sharp, spare, laugh-out-loud prose, Werner's misfit characters struggle to find their purpose in a world defined by alienation, death, and soul-sucking capitalism. These characters desire more from life, but are unsure what more looks like or how to get it. While they're figuring it out, they cope by trading clever one-liners, eating a lot of gas station food, obsessing over the world's extinction, and mailing koan-like postcards sacross the country. This is a small, smart book that asks the big questions about the age we're stuck in: What is the good life? Does it exist? How can we create authentic selves and art in a world that values neither?" - Megan Martin, author of Nevers</span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Stories by Matthew Burnside</span></div>
<br />
A two-headed, eight-eyed monster of a book that moves in all directions, building hearts out of Legos and dreams out of mere existence. The possibilities and feelings and imagination in these stories are as endless as infinity itself, as fulfilling as a fistful of quarters in the jukebox of a lifetime.<br />

Ten stories of myths and the roads that sprawl out from them. These are not the stories of Greek and Roman gods, but of the daily hurts and hopes people cling to in lieu of a simple other, the apparitions and rumors of science and tradition that can give or take away.</div>

The only details I've got so far are still mostly top secret.<br />
<br />
Do you want to be a top secret? Sure you do. Check the guidelines page and send me a manuscript.<br />

Look at that. It's a printer. It's my printer, the one I'm going to make these books on. I haven't hooked it up yet because I didn't order any paper and I know I'll just end up printing random shit off on a bunch of receipts I taped together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've solicited a few manuscripts and received several unsolicited (yet completely welcome) manuscripts as well through this website. I'd like to release two or three books at once for the first official release and then run a deal on buying all three (or both, if there is no third). It's looking like this can happen, but there's always the future, and that's why you all need to send me some work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Check the submission guidelines and then check your work and then check with your mother or legal guardian and then check with me. We'll talk. It'll probably be one of the least worst things you ever do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So just do it already.</div>
