Hello Friends,

Checking in on this dreary Friday to give everyone a publishing update! Unfortunately, our offer on the logging, revenge horror book was declined. I am disappointed because I felt that with the right edits, this book would have been great! Ultimately, I live my life with the belief that what is meant for you is meant for you and this one just wasn't meant for us. This makes the reality of us getting a book for the Spring 2026 season very slim.

I am currently looking at a non-fiction book that I am excited about. It is comped to Braiding Sweetgrass. It's a book of essays about grief, mixed with journal entries, poetry and Native perspectives on life and land. The premise sounds right up my alley and I think that it would appeal to a wide range of readers. What do you think? I'd love to be the first imprint with a non-fiction book!

How do I convince the powers that be to give me a summer book and a fall book? Is that a thing?

Our logo is almost completed. It just needs to be sized. I hope much doesn't change in the sizing because I love them! What do you think?

As always, thanks for supporting Boozhoo Books! We literally couldn't do it without you.
