Reductio ad malarkum

Welcome to the internet home of Malarkey Books, a very small small press and very independent independent publisher of books, zines, and whatever else we feel like doing. Our website has fiction, humor, book reviews, essays, and—seems like a theme is emerging—whatever else we feel like doing. You’re probably here by accident, or maybe Fate. Either way, feel free to do some reading.

Story of the Week*

100 People in a Hot Tub
Frank Santo

*Until our budget allows us to pay for a new story every actual seven days we are using “week” in a real loose sort of sense, where it means roughly every seven to fourteenish days. If you’re a prescriptivist and this bothers you please consider supporting the Malarkey Writers Fund so we can follow a more rigid definition.
