Oddly Enough Publishing

A publishing house, oddly enough.

We print fiction by real people, stranger fiction by people we had to invent, and the occasional book that is honestly trying to trick you. Everything is edited until the brothers stop arguing. Every book below is real, in production, and will tell you exactly what state it's in — this house shows its seams on purpose.

Also being carpentered: Mysteries · Horror · Kids Books (kept far, far from the parody wing) · the Ero Nomis philosophy shelf · Fantasy & Sci-Fi · General Fiction · and a pulp rack we cannot legally tell you the codename of. The empty shelf is a promise, not a gap. We are recruiting writers. Some of them exist.

The Argument

The house periodical. Leaf writes about books as if they were living things, Carl appears rarely and only to disagree, and subscribers watch new authors get born. No spam; the brothers can barely agree to send one.

About the House

Oddly Enough Publishing is the sister house of One Hand Clapping Records. It is kept by two brothers who share one insomnia between them: Leaf Quire, who loves books the way most people love their children or their dogs, and Carl Quire, who has read exactly one book in his life — at nine years old — and found it so good he never risked a second. Leaf edits. Carl sells. They argue, and the arguing is the editorial process. Nothing ships until the brothers stop arguing.

Some of our books are made by hand. Some are made by machine by other means. All of them are made on purpose, and the colophon of every book will tell you honestly which is which.
