Reverberating through the publishing industry

Jai Clare has blogged about an interesing new small press publisher on the block called reverb [sic].

Judging by their mission statement, this sounds like an interesting venture:

"reverb isn’t a traditional publisher. We think of it as a cross between an online community of readers and an independent record label. Why a record label? Because we publish books that have broadly the same ‘sound’ – contemporary literary fiction with an edge. This edge can be humorous, it can be thought-provoking, but it is something that makes the book stand out from the crowd. We hope that if a reader has enjoyed one reverb book then they will enjoy the others."

The other interesting thing is that they are based right here in Oxford. Hmm, maybe I should try to get in with the good folk of reverb.
