The new issue of Inkbound times has dropped!

This issue features: von Lindenberg | 📚🎶🤘🏼
@🖋️ Terrah Faire | Author


and many many others!

Something shifted this week.
Not loud.
Not obvious.
But enough that you can feel it.
Inkbound is starting to reach further.
New authors stepping in.
Global Book Crawl confirmed.
And things moving behind the scenes that aren’t going to stay hidden for long.
This isn’t just another issue.
Go read it.
Or catch up later… when everyone else already knows what’s happening.

24/04/2026

Tomorrow only.

Independent Bookshop Day.

Inkbound doesn’t do ordinary.

10% off books in store only. 10% off merch on www.theinkboundbookshop.com.
Everything. No exceptions.

Indie stories. Inkbound chaos.
No algorithms. No gatekeeping.

You don’t need permission to discover something new.
You just need to show up.

Or don’t.
And watch everyone else find their next obsession.

⚡ 10% off sitewide
🗓 Saturday only

Enter Inkbound.
