Chapter Updates

This week, you can find Chapter 21 of Megan Derr’s Bound and Chapter 7 of Derr’s The Bastard Prince. See the serial fiction page to access these new chapters!

Slogan Contest

We’re also pleased to announce that we’re opening a contest this week! LT3 Press is looking for a good slogan to include on some of the merchandise we’re creating, but we’re drawing a blank. We’re looking for anything from a snappy one-liner to a few words that sum up LT3 Press (basically, anything that can fit on a mug without requiring a magnifying glass). The person who submits the winning slogan will get a piece of merch (a bag, t-shirt, mug, etc.) of their choice with that slogan!

If you’ve got an idea, email it to admin@lessthanthreepress.com. Please include the slogan, your name, and the email address you’d like us to use to contact you (if for some reason it’s different from the address you email us from). The winner and winning slogan will be announced on January 6th; please make sure all submissions are in by January 1st. You can submit multiple slogans, so don’t be shy!

Café Press Merchandise!

Next week, we’ll be opening our new Café Press storefront, where you’ll be able to purchase t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, and more with the LT3 Logo on them. Check back here next week for a link to the LT3 Boutique!

That Famous Happy End

As a reminder, submissions are still open for the That Famous Happy End anthology! We hope you’re working hard and look forward to seeing what you’ve got cooking!
