Humble Quill

pur­vey­or of qual­i­ty syl•la•bles

Artisinal, goblin-lettered literature to delight you.

Our Process

At Hum­ble Quill ®, we do things the old-fash­ioned way. Clarence, our print-gob­lin, painstak­ing­ly hand-let­ters every page of every book—even the eBooks.

Does that take extra time? Of course, but it’s worth the effort. Because tra­di­tions mat­ter. Qual­i­ty. Atten­tion to detail. Unpaid labor by mag­i­cal­ly-bound fer­al humanoids.

It’s how we’ve always done things. And we think you’ll read the difference.

Three Grams of Elsewhere

Fifty years after polar­iza­tion frac­tured the Unit­ed States, a reclu­sive empath con­fronts the con­se­quences of his role in that war—and of the part he played in weaponiz­ing empathy.

[A] stun­ning­ly well-craft­ed sci­ence fic­tion novel…Giesler push­es read­ers to think deeply about how we con­nect to each other…”

[A] sto­ry writ­ten so well that, no mat­ter how per­fect, sur­pris­ing, and com­plete the end­ing, read­ers will want to return in search of even more.”

Wow. Wow wow wow…this was a cap­ti­vat­ing, enter­tain­ing, and enlight­en­ing read.”

Contact Leon

Leon, our spokes-ogre, will be delight­ed to answer your inquiries.

Well…actually, he won’t be delight­ed. Noth­ing puts Leon in a fouler mood than “FOOLISH HUMAN QUESTIONS.” He will answer, though.

He’s not good at this, but it’s bet­ter than let­ting him ram­page through the coun­try­side eat­ing stray pets and unat­tend­ed children.
