Yes, we're back. Last century we were BlackWattle Press. Now we're saving trees by constructing digital books, bits in the ether, zeros and ones on a wire, spinning silver discs and all that.

This is how it works. We'll get you cheaper and faster access to oz gay lit by producing pdf files that you can easily view on-screen. We save costs such as printing, distribution and retailer markups, and you pay - nothing, it's FREE! You still could, if you wanted, still print them out to store them in the real world, but why bother with all that ink, paper and Ikea shelving. The real plus with this project is that the ideas, the stories, and the magic (all the best bits) can be in your hands almost immediately. Enjoy!
