HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, EVERYONE! We are thrilled to announce our second-annual Pride Bundles for Charity with two all-new short story bundles – 30 stories total! – that we are selling at a discount to raise money for our chosen queer charity!

Last year, our debut Pride bundles raised almost $350 for queer charities. This year, we’re back with a new General Imprint Bundle and a new Explicit Imprint Bundle, each discounted 20% from their list prices (and each including multiple stories that aren’t for sale and are usually only available to our backers on Patreon) and with 20% of the net profit going to Rainbow Railroad.

How This Works

you buy one or both bundles between now and July 8th, 2024.

we tally up all the proceeds earned and do some math-e-magic to figure out how much we’re donating!

before the end of July, we donate the raised money to Rainbow Railroad, we post the proof we’ve done so.

you get fantastic stories!

we all get that happy, glowy feeling of knowing that money has been well-spent on fantastic causes!

About the Press

Duck Prints Press is a queer-owned indie press, founded to publish original works by fancreators. We’ve been in operation for over 3 years, and in that time we’ve worked with well over 150 creators to publish six anthologies and almost 100 other stories, from shorts to novels, and we’ve got more on the works (our next anthology, our first erotica collection, will be crowdfunding within the next month!). The vast majority of our creators and their creations are queer/LGTBQIA+ (maybe even all, but we don’t out anyone and we don’t ask demography because, frankly, it’s none of our business).

25 of our authors have chosen to include their short stories in one or both of these short story bundles, and all our short story authors nominated potential charities and voted to select Rainbow Railroad as the beneficiary for our 2024 Pride Bundles.

About Rainbow Railroad

In countries around the world, LGBTQI+ people face violence and oppression simply because of who they love or who they are. Rainbow Railroad helps them get to safety! Rainbow Railroad is a global not-for-profit organization that helps at-risk LGBTQI+ people get to safety worldwide. Based in the United States and Canada, they’re an organization that helps LGBTQI+ people facing persecution based on their sexual orientation, gender identity and sex characteristics. In a time when there are more displaced people than ever, LGBTQI+ people are uniquely vulnerable due to systemic, state-enabled homophobia and transphobia. These factors either displace them in their own country or prevent them from escaping harm. 

Note: This charity isnot affiliated with the Press, do not know we’re doing this fundraiser, have not endorsed this in anyway and are, as such, utterly uninvolved in this beyond being the beneficiaries of our efforts! Text is from the Rainbow Railroad website.

“Part of why I think this is difficult for some on the left to reckon with is that many of these terms we use regularly do not have centralized definitions. Their meanings can be heavily contested. The meaning of Zionism itself is frequently debated, meaning different things to different people. Generally, from leftist critics of Israel, we understand Zionism as a political project to colonize historic Palestine and maintain a specifically Jewish state whose existence hinges on the preferencing and hegemony of a Jewish demographic majority. The alternative to that would be some of the different proposed arrangements that help to ensure democracy, equality, and safety for all residents of the region, at least if someone from a dependably left-wing perspective is speaking.

For neo-Nazis, Israel is simply one small element of what Zionism is, which they see as the political operationalism of Jewishness itself. Zionism is the project of global Jewish control by which Jews seed themselves into dominant institutions to manipulate them and turn them towards supposedly homogenous Jewish interests. Those interests are the destruction of the white race and “traditional” societies, often through perversion and thought control, so that Jews can ultimately rule over them. Unlike supposedly natural and normal empires and states, which in this formulation emerge from the white volk and are part of a supposedly harmonious white ethnic identity, ZOG is a parasitic, diseased manifestation of an outside influence, using the best Aryan traits against Aryan interests so that they can further centralize resources, power, and hierarchies. There is a ruling class in this formulation, but it’s not the capitalists: instead, the true rulers are Jews, and the non-Jewish ruling class are either puppets of ZOG or soon to become puppets.”

The Fruit Bearer

New scp oc just dropped! Meet Researcher Dutch Ambrosia (He/They + Neos), aka SCP-0345: The Fruit Bearer. He is literally a tree, specifically the tree of knowledge from the Garden of Eden

Playlist linked + extra info below cut

Three snakes live in his body, and his heart is an apple. He uses a breathing tube because instead of lungs he has branches with leaves and needs a constant flow of air, the Foundation also uses it to give him small doses of class a/b amnestics because they don't want him to find out that hes the tree of Eden 8⁰3c

Made to ship with the newest iteration of @ooorgeorge Gatlin Hayes who is Literally Jesus (Carpenter x Tree is really funny), and is also friends with Dr King for fairly obvious reasons. Apples, Figs, and Pomegranates are all significant fruits for various reasons, and theres more to him than meets the eye

The only reason that posts like the "down with flatscans bus" post exist is because the people making them would make a down with mutants bus if they could

🌌what-is-a-neo

just a few misc revaudios hcs <3

dove spent ages trying to learn healing magic despite it being so far removed from divination, because they wouldn't be able to live with themself if one of their worst visions came true and someone was hurt and they couldn't do anything about it.

ellis is the type of person to have a trick bookcase, but just with another bookcase behind it.

darling and neo have very different attitudes towards partial-shifting. as established, neo thinks it's a embarrassing little phase shifters go through before they can fully control their powers. darling's family/pack/whatever always treated half-shifting as, like, the default, most comfortable way to exist. anyway, if darling's comfortable around someone and they're out of the furry shifter closet, the ears are out, is all i'm saying.

This iconic mystery was adapted from a story by Cornell Woolrich and earned a Best Writing, Screenplay Oscar nomination for screenwriter John Michael Hayes.

[reverieaudios]

heyyy! do any of the characters have last names? hope ure having a good day !

Thanks, I hope you're having a good day too!

And yep, all of the introduced characters have last names except for Dion (also Jacob because reasons), and that's just because Flame Demons don't really have like... verbal surnames lol. Their "family names" are visually based.

Although honestly most of their surnames aren't really vital to their character, so if you want to imagine them with different ones be my guest.

○ Casey Hughes

○ Cyril Lauriet

○ Desmond Williams

○ Dion

○ Ellis Reed

○ Gage Mitchell

○ Jacob ???

○ Lawrence (Law) Fuller

○ Neo Hayes

○ Roman Carter

Bonus:

○ Gael Harris
