Cool!

Had to laugh at the word 'micropress'. Didn't know that was a word ;-)

[girliejones]

I like it very much.

[girliejones]

Yeah, that's how I took it - as in Big Press Houses and Micropress, being boutique.

"Micropress" sounds OK. It'd be disappointing to be labelled a "Nanopress", though.

Heh. Well I can think of a few though :)

It's a cool, modern term, it definitely has more cache than 'small press' - it's a pretty commonly heard one in lit & poetry circles, I think.

I really like the way this review presents the book in terms lit readers would understand, none of that scary spec fic vocab that is so offputting to mainstream media/readers.

[girliejones]

I think it means something different to "small press" too.

Cool, modern terms will do me, alright!

I like this review.
