Many thanks to Ger Killeen at Headlandia for the insightful review of John Yamrus' Doing Cartwheels On Doomsday Afternoon and Can't Stop Now! here.

In an effort to better represent a brick and mortar book-buying experience, ERP has uploaded numerous "look inside" features that enable you to look inside an ERP book to help you decide whether or not it is the right book for you.  At present you can look inside An Age of Monsters by William Taylor Jr., Frostbitten by Mark Walton, Can't Stop Now! by John Yamrus, Blood and Greasepaint by Karl Koweski, Laughing At Funerals by David McLean, and Crudely Mistaken For Life by Wolfgang Carstens.  These "look inside" features are available inside the ERP bookstore here, or available for viewing at Scribd here.  More ERP titles will be added shortly.

I hope you enjoy this new feature - and more importantly, that it inspires you to shop Epic Rites Press.

Epic Rites Press will proudly wave its banner at the forthcoming AWP (The Association of Writers and Writing Programs) annual conference and bookfair that will be happening February 29th - March 3rd in Chicago at the Hilton Chicago and Palmer House Hilton.
