Amid everything else, preorders for the @marchxness.bsky.social anthology Hit Repeat Until I Hate Music are open!

Includes possibly the only thing I will ever try to write about music, from the 2023 80s fadness bracket, on Sugarhill Gang's Rapper's Delight!

Did you know that if you buy my book on Amazon, Jeff Bezos makes 5 times as much as I do on each copy sold? Sharing some behind-the-scenes book math on why buying directly from presses is best for EVERYONE (except Bezos) in my newsletter today! aubreyhirsch.substack.com/p/book-math

We used to, but it got really out of hand for us to correctly configure the shipping rates! All our books are available to be purchased by international readers directly through our distributor, Asterism, and they'll ship to Canada <3 asterismbooks.com/product/grap...

Rage isn’t just an emotion—it’s a shield, a weapon, and a survival tactic for women battling the everyday frustrations of womanhood in America. Why is our pain dismissed, our autonomy debated, ...

(fwiw, we can speak on this: every ebook copy of GR purchased through Amazon costs $13.99, Aubrey will see $4.90 of that...every ebook copy of GR purchased through US costs $13--yes, less for YOU the buyer--and Aubrey will get $6.16--yes, more for her!)

Aubrey makes this so easy. Ordered my* copy of Graphic Rage today from @splitlippress.com - can't wait to get my hands on it.

*It's actually a gift for a visiting graphic artist relative who lives in Colombia, but you can bet your ass I'll gently read it before gifting it to her.

Happy book birthday, @aubreyhirsch.bsky.social!!

Folks, I’ve read “Graphic Rage” and it’s INCREDIBLE!

In fact, I interviewed Aubrey recently about it and soon you can read that too. But buy this book first; and read it with your whole family (hamsters too).

Also--if you who don't own a print copy yet, the book's price has increased w/the 3rd print run (rising print costs; we're sorry too) but we're sitting on a small stash of the 2nd print run in our office...so if you want to buy your copy at the cheaper rate, make sure you do it directly with us!
