Black Humourist Press
Literature stew. Stories of the decline and decadence of our American culture. BHP stories are about people, their lives, and how we all relate to each other through our different cultural experiences. Always current and entertaining.
After numerous attempts at breaking through the publishing industry through traditional means, it was decided to self-publish. The old models of publishing, although effective, make it difficult for new authors to get started. In the face of new methods used by the latest generation of recording artists, it’s time to embrace the new tools and just get out there on our own. The Black Humourist Press is open to collaboration and publishing your work, too. Please jump over to the Contact page to begin our conversation.
