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.

The Nothing Within

A rur­al-dystopi­an nov­el explor­ing post-apoc­a­lyp­tic Amish coun­try, a soci­ety shaped by fear, and pri­vate choic­es that remake the world.

“[I]mpossible to put down…nothing short of a sto­ry­telling mas­ter­work.” — BlueInk Reviews (starred review)

“[A] fresh and inge­nious take on the post-apoc­a­lyp­tic novel…that main­tains sus­pense from its first page to its last.” — Fore­word Clar­i­on Reviews (five stars)

“Crafty sur­pris­es abound in this debut novel…[P]henomenal world­build­ing.” — Kirkus Reviews

“[U]nexpectedly orig­i­nal, refresh­ing­ly reveal­ing, and a stand­out com­pared to the usu­al dystopi­an explo­ration.” — D. Dono­van, Senior Review­er, Mid­west Book Review

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.
