Artistically Declined Press

Thanks for checking out our site. We are a new small press devoted to great writing and great design. We are very excited to announce our first book, Ken Sparling’s elusive second novel, Hush Up and Listen Stinky Poo Butt, will be published in early 2010. Sparling is the author of three other novels, Dad Says He Saw You At The Mall, For Those Whom God Has Blessed With Fingers, and [untitled]. Previously Hush Up and Listen was available only in handmade editions by request, we are looking forward to bringing this fantastic novel of fatherhood to more readers.

In the coming month we will also announce the details of our print journal, which will greet the world with its first issue in summer 2010. We will have open submissions, so make sure to stay tuned.

We also plan to release multiple free .pdf ebooks each year. Our first is Arise, a short collection of poems by Bradley Bates and it is available now. Go HERE and download the goodness.

Thanks again for checking us out. Make sure to keep checking back as we roll out more news, projects, and musings on the process of it all.
