Download Jeff VanderMeer’s ‘The Situation’, FREE, from Wired.com
Posted by Darren on March 5th, 2008 at 9:39
Canadian journalist Brad Moon has interviewed Jeff and Ann VanderMeer for Wired.com's GeekDad blog and to mark the occasion, we've supplied a pdf copy of Jeff's forthcoming chapbook / novelette, The Situation and made it available as a free download from the blog.wired.com/geekdad article.
That's right folks, if you'd like to try before you buy, simply head on over and grab the pdf, then put the printer on or transfer the file to your e-reader of choice. Once you're done, high-tail it over to the PS Webstore to place your pre-order; the book should be back from the printers and shipping at the end of the third week in March.
Quick word to the wise: we're only printing 200 copies of the signed, numbered, jacketed hardcover edition and around a hundred of those are already accounted for by pre-order customers, so you may have to be quick to secure your copy.
Finished Cover: ‘The Saved’ by Joe Hill
Posted by Darren on November 23rd, 2007 at 17:53
Here's the finished cover, wrap-around style, for Joe Hill's chapbook The Saved, with artwork by PS regular James Hannah:
As we announced earlier in the year, The Saved is this year's bonus chapbook for subscribers to Postscripts magazine, so the only way to get hold of a copy when it's published will be if you're a current and paid-up subscriber when issue #13 of the magazine is sent out.
More information on the Subscriptions page of the PS Webstore, if you're tempted...
Christmas Last Ordering Date: November 28th, plus: 50% Sale Extended to December 31st!
Posted by Darren on November 13th, 2007 at 18:57
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The PS Publishing office will be closed between November 30th and December 13th this year. Therefore, if you want to buy books from us for attempted Christmas delivery, please place your order no later than November 28th, to give us time to process your order.
Orders placed on or after November 30th will be queued and processed during the week commencing December 17th. Unfortunately this is after the last posting dates for both Royal Mail and our parcel carrier DHL. As a result, those orders will, most likely, be delivered between Christmas and the New Year, or quite possibly during the first couple of weeks of January.
If you have any questions about Christmas Delivery, please send them to our main enquiry email address:
enquiries [at] PSPublishing [dot] co [dot] uk
If, on the other hand, you're not in a rush to get your books by Christmas, then we have some very good news for you:
The Current PS Sale - 50% off all pre-2007 book titles - will be extended to the end of December 2007.
We've had a number of emails from customers and friends suggesting that it would be a great idea if they could spend their Christmas pennies on the PS Sale, and who are we to disagree?
December 31st is therefore the new cut-off date for the sale, and that will definitely be it. No more extensions, no more titles added, nothing. Given that this is our first and only sale in eight years of publication, this could quite easily be the only sale for quite some time...
And don't forget, sale prices only apply while stocks of individual titles last, so the longer you leave it, the higher the chances that you'll miss out.
PS Sale Progress - Low Stock Alert!
Posted by Darren on November 13th, 2007 at 18:50
Our current special offer - 50% off all book titles published before 2007 - has been a huge success since we launched it on October 15th and the books have been almost literally flying out of the warehouse.
As a result, we're now down to fewer than 25 copies of the following titles.
- Light Stealer [jhc] by James Barclay
- Mayflower II [jhc] by Stephen Baxter
- Secret Stories [sc] by Ramsey Campbell
- Told by the Dead [sc] by Ramsey Campbell
- Jigsaw Men [jhc] by Gary Greenwood
- Jigsaw Men [pb] by Gary Greenwood
- The Lost Poetry of William Hope Hodgson [jhc] ed. by Jane Frank
- By Moonlight Only [jhc] ed. by Stephen Jones
- The Uglimen [jhc] by Mark Morris
- Nowhere Near an Angel [sc] by Mark Morris
- Cinema Macabre [jhc] ed. by Mark Morris
- Michael Marshall Smith: The Annotated Bibliography [pb] ed. by Lavie Tidhar
- Flavors of My Genius [jhc] by Steven Utley
- In Springdale Town [pb] by Robert Freeman Wexler
Order sooner rather than later to avoid disappointment if there's something in that list that you've had your eye on for a while, because once it's gone, it's gone...
We're also low on several back-issues of Postscripts magazine. They're not included in the sale, but we thought we should take this opporuntity to let you know, in case you have any gaps in your collection:
- Issue #1 [pb]
- Issue #3 [pb]
- Issue #4 [hc]
- Issue #5 [pb]
- Issue #6 [hc]
- Issue #8 [pb]
- Issue #8 [hc]
- Issue #9 [pb]
- Issue #10 [hc, unsigned]
- Issue #11 [pb]
- Issue #11 [hc]
New PS Publishing Website! And a 50% discount sale…
Posted by Darren on October 15th, 2007 at 10:45
Yes, folks, it's finally here! The all new, all-signing, all-dancing, e-commerce enabled PS Website is now live at http://store.pspublishing.co.uk!
The old site might be operational for a day or two yet while I check and fine-tune the new version, but once everything is in place you'll hardly notice that the URL has changed... although you're sure to notice the improved functionality and user-friendliness of the new site.
No more sending credit card details split across two emails, no more faxing orders through and sending a separate cheque... from now on, buying your books direct from PS is just a few mouse-clicks, a couple of personal details and a credit card number away.
Please do visit the new site, have a look around and let us know what you think, by sending any feedback via the Contact page. And of course, while you're there, you could always test the new e-commerce functionality by buying something... ;)
And to make that an even more tempting prospect for you:
SALE! SALE! SALE!
50% off all pre-2007 books, while stocks last!
We wanted to do something special to mark the launch of the new site, so we've decided to hold the first ever PS Publishing discount sale, and we've knocked a massive 50% off the price of all pre-2007 books (back-issues of Postscripts not included) in our Current Catalogue.
The discount will be applied automatically as you place the items into the shopping basket (please note that the usual postage costs will still apply).
The offer will run until the end of November 2007 (perfect for a spot of early Xmas shopping for the bibliophile in your life...) and will apply to individual titles only while stocks last. The stock levels of some of the titles included are running pretty low already, so if you're tempted to buy something at a bargain price, then you probably shouldn't hang around too long, because once a title is out of stock in a particular edition, it's gone; we're not planning on re-printing.
If you have any questions about the sale, please drop us a line via service [at] pspublishing.co.uk and we'll do our best to get back to you just as quickly as we can, although please do bear with us - we hope to be very busy in the mail room for the next few weeks!
Special Offer: Free Postage on all pre-orders until September 30th
Posted by Darren on September 13th, 2007 at 13:42
To mark our major schedule update announcement we're making this special offer until the end of September 2007:
Free Postage on all pre-publication orders placed before October 1st 2007!
That's right, if you pre-order any items from our list of forthcoming titles and complete your order by September 30th* (full payment has to reach us by that date to qualify) then we won't charge you our usual postal rates for those books. The book(s) will be sent out as soon as they're published by our usual first class / international airmail carriers (as applicable).
Take a look at our recent schedule update announcement and that list of forthcoming titles to see what's included in the offer - there's around fifty new titles to browse through, so we're sure you'll find something to tempt you!
See the how to order page of the site for further details on placing an order with us.
*Not September 31st, as previously advertised. Much as we'd love to add an extra day to the month so that you can place another 24 hours' worth of orders with us, we're still working on the technical details of that one... ;)
