Perfect Day Publishing is a small press based in Portland, OR. If it’s not personal, we’re not interested.
Goodbye to the Nervous Apprehension is out now. Michael will be touring the east coast in May. To listen to Michael on OPB’s Think Out Loud radio show, click here.
Love Is Not Constantly reaches #1 on the Powell’s bestseller list. The book is now in its third printing.
Perfect Day’s entire catalog makes the Portland Mercury’s annual ‘best local’ list: “These books would’ve made it onto this list on their own merits, but they also mark the debut of a noteworthy new Portland publisher.”
Martha Grover reads “15 things I’m Not Putting on my OK Cupid Profile” on The Writer’s Block on KQED.
Buy One More for the People by Martha Grover, Yeah. No. Totally. by Lisa Wells, and Love Is Not Constantly Wondering If You Are Making the Biggest Mistake of Your Life by Anonymous (out now).
“Martha Grover is a genius. Her story is unique, but as I read Grover, some part of me always feels that this is everybody’s autobiography. This is what it means to fiercely love a changing self.” – Ariel Gore, author of Bluebird and Atlas of the Human Heart
“If you’ve been looking for a bright, wise guide to the times, Ms. Wells has a whole world to show you.” – Jon Raymond, author of Livability and The Half-Life
