Hello world!

Welcome to The GPD! This is the home base for all publishing done by The Green Penny Dreadful. Here, you can access links to the books in our Library, get to know our Author, as well as get exclusive News about upcoming projects.

Publishing online is pretty uncommon today. There’s definitely something romantic about the process of publishing that’s been in place for decades now. As a fellow literary purist, I love the smell and feel of a book as much as the next reader, but why not take advantage of the reach of the internet? As an author that’s just starting out, and has no name for themselves within the community, getting their work published can be daunting, and even terrifying.

So, when I started looking into putting my own work online, I found that there wasn’t really any process put in place yet. I knew I wanted to self publish, and I had the idea to do it as a series through blog posts. Not exactly the standard for publishing. But I liked the idea. And I also wanted to include bonus content along with each chapter as it was released.

How will it work?

The books are published, chapter by chapter, on their own site. You can find the links to the book’s site in the library. The first chapter is free for everyone and can be read at any time. If the first chapter is enough to capture you and make you want to keep reading, then you can subscribe to the book’s website. Your subscription gives you access to the rest of the chapters, once they are released, as well as the bonus content that is created with the book. How you read is entirely up to you. You can read as the chapters are released each week, or you can wait and read it all at once. After the entire book has been published in this way, print copies will be available for purchase. So if reading online isn’t for you, then you can purchase a copy of the book.

Happy Reading!
