Pride Month at TGP!!!

The Tiny Ghost Newsletter, edition #26, 22 June, 2023


Hey prideful peeps!


We're about two thirds of the way through Pride month and it's been an epic month so far here at TGP! I want to do a little recap to talk about all the exciting things going on! Everything we've anounced and all the exciting Pride events we have going on. Stay tuned till the end for a BIIIIIG newsletter exclusive announcement!



First up, we're running our biggest giveaway EVER over on Instagram. One lucky winner will take home a whole bundle of pride goodies, including every currently released Tiny Ghost Press book (with signed editions of both Against The Stars and The Alphas Son), plus a Tiny Ghost tote bag, a bunch of book swag, and some ghostly marshmallows! Two runners up will receive a tote, book swag, and the marshmallows. We've never had a prize pack this large but if there was ever a time to celebrate it's Pride, right? To enter all you need to do is head over to our Instagram and find our post advertising the giveaway. Like the post and share it to your stories, make sure you're following us, and tag a friend in the comments, each friend you tag constitutes another entry into the draw which will be decided at random on the 30th of June. The competition is open internationally and with so many queer books up for grabs why wouldn't you enter!



In other news we kicked off the month announcing that we'd acquired Andrey L. Bradley's stunning queer YA sci-fi Trailer Park Prince. A story mirroring the real world plight of oppressed minorities that centers on the twin princes of an alien race stranded on earth and the divergent paths they take in the face of marginalisation and hatred.





This book cuts to the core. It's honest, visceral, and shines a spotlight on racial inequality and prejudice that's all too familiar in today's society. I cannot wait for you all to read it. Trailer Park Prince will be out Summer 2024.


Additionally, we also announced the acquisition of Monstersona author Chloe Spencer's next book, Haunting Melody, a ghostly mystery that sees teen ghost hunter Melody running from the scars of her past while trying to solve a series of grizzly murders with the help of a very annoying but very attractive ghost named Cyrus, who is a musical prodigy and also happens to be the prime suspect.




We are thrilled to have Chloe continue her publishing journey with us and so excited to bring this spooky, haunting tale of self-worth and perseverance to the world. Haunting Melody will be out October, 2024.


Both Trailer Park Prince and Haunting Melody will be avilable for preorder soon so keep an eye out for cover reveals and sales links!


For the whole month of June we're having a sale on everything in the Tiny Ghost Shop, which includes all of our titles. To celebrate Pride we're offering 25% off everything when you use the code PRIDE2023 at checkout. So it's a great time to support a queer run business and, as always, any purchases made in the store will go to helping LGBTQIA+ youth who are homless or loving in difficult situations. A portion of profits from the store go to AKT who do great work and we're thrilled to give back to the community this month.



And finally we have one more big announcement for the month!



On June 29th we're launching our very own YouTube channel with an author roundtable featuring Xan van Rooyen (My Name Is Magic), Justin Arnold (Wicked Little Things), Chloe Spencer (Monstersona), and Chris Hartland (Against The Stars). The roundtable will be hosted by Jacob from A Very Queer Book Club and streamed simultaneously on his Youtube acount and ours at 1pm EST. I've been wanting to organize an event where we get as many of our authors together to discuss their books, writing, and existing as a queer author for a long time and I'm so happy to see this dream come to fruition. I'm so excited for this event and think it's going to be super fun and very informative. So tune in and subscribe to our new Youtube channel for bookish content, trailers, and more!!!



That's it for this Pride month! It's beena big one but we're so excited about everything that's happening at Tiny Ghost and everything that's in the pipeline. I hope you're all having amazing Pride's as well and enjoying being here and being queer!


Stay scary!
