Firm Worm Publishing




Firm Worm Publishing
            Firm worm publishing is a sibling project. We design, write, illustrate, print and hand-bind all of our publications; nothing is outsourced. Our first book is Stoneskimming: the stoneskimmer’s manual. Our library will grow to include poetry collections, comics and zines. We’re making paper companions perfect for the pocket, the bedside and the toilet cistern. Our hands are on every step of the process; we’re sharing the things that make us smile and laugh and will not let that be diluted nor sullied by the clawprints of scum reptiles.

Stoneskimming: the stoneskimmer’s manual









You Arselick - A book of poems


            And with them,or after them, may there not come that even bolder adventurer — the first geolinguist, who, ignoring the delicate, transient lyrics of the lichen, will read beneath it the still less communicative, still more passive, wholly atemporal, cold, volcanic poetry of the rocks: each one a word spoken, how long ago, by the earth itself, in the immense solitude, the immenser community, of space.
