Chile competition/cook-off and pie-sale at Neale Park on behalf of Tiny Home Village - a not for profit here in Bryan/College Station building a village of "tiny homes" to house the homeless. Come on by between 4 pm and 6 om today and grab some chile (Fr. Cassian's famous Terence Hill Chile - with beans - or Bud Spenser Chile - all meat), or buy a pie for a worthy cause.

A worthy cause. Ten dollars really can make a difference. Please donate.

Every once in a while, here at Shack Simple Press LLC we come across a book that we really, really wish that we'd been the first to publish. This is one of those. It is a truly beautiful book. Purchase a copy with our blessing. Indeed, if you click through from here, we'll even get a commission.

Here's a description:

"Groundglass takes shape atop a polluted aquifer in Minnesota, beside trains that haul fracked crude oil, as Kathryn Savage confronts the transgressions of U.S. Superfund sites and brownfields against land, groundwater, neighborhoods, and people. Drawing on her own experiences growing up on the fence lines of industry and the parallel realities of raising a young son while grieving a father dying of a cancer with known environmental risk factors, Savage traces concentric rings of connection--between our bodies, one another, our communities, and our ecosystem. She explores the porous boundary between self and environment, and the ambiguous yet growing body of evidence linking toxins to disease. Equal parts mourning poem and manifesto for environmental justice, Groundglass reminds us that no living thing exists on its own."

With respect to our most recent, and soon to be published book, Land is a Big Deal, over 200 customers had already purchased the book on a pre-order status by last Monday, and the de...

Yesterday, the printing proofs for Shack Simple Press's second book, Lars Doucet's _Land is a Big Deal_ were approved, and printing has begun, just in time to meet our October 15th deadline. It's a good thing, too. Half of our first print run is already sold as pre-publication purchases.

Check it out for yourself:

The conflicts of the last century have trained us to see capital and labor as two fundamentally opposed camps–if we want to stimulate growth and economic progress, it means squeezing workers, and if we want to take care of workers it means accepting higher taxes, more barriers to starting and runn...

We are busy editing a new book by Lars Doucet, who, as the economist Noah Smith recently opined, "Has thought more deeply about land taxes than anyone I've ever met...and I've met just about everyone." Be looking for further updates on a publishing date. We are hoping to get the book out in May.

Poetry, economics...who knows what will be next?

A new blog entry about celebrating - quietly - the birth of a new book!

The books arrived late in the evening, and it was raining, but they were well packaged, and survived their journey from the printers in Akron, Ohio, to College Station, Texas (and yes, our books are "Made in the USA.") A flurry of activity ensued as the twenty-five or so books that had been pre-orde...
