1. a great deal of fuss or attention given to a minor matter
2. a zine of surreal storytelling and worldly observations published by humdrum industries

We publish a new piece of fiction every Thursday and aim to send out a new Media Guide every Monday. Then throughout the month we publish various columns, poems, webcomics, cartoons, and more.

Our fledgling press publishes novelettes and anthologies in print as well!

The Foofs are the industries most infamous annual awards and "an ordinary contest" is our annual themed writing contest.
