I'm shuttering the press for the foreseeable future. This is due to multiple factors that have, over the past year and a bit, contributed to the increasingly poor functioning of the press and the failure to live up to the admittedly meager ideals it was founded on. It's painful to write this post...|
Before we get to the actual announcement, Migraineers, we’d like you to take a look at this moth. It’s called a Metalmark Moth, of the genus Brenthia in the family Choreutidae. And what this critter does is very rare: they mimic the Jumping Spider, which is (wait for it) their main predator. From [...]|
And while you do, ponder this Table of Contents for Monstrous Outlines... with the dual exceptions of authors Cody Goodfellow and Jonathan Raab (each with stories in the 2017 anthology A Breath from the Sky) this is an all new line-up of incredibly talented writers that we know you'll be thrilled by!|
The last quarter of 2018 saw some delays and general hold-ups here at MMP HQ, but we’re happy to announce that operations are back on track and the two anthologies that were planned for 2019 are still on their way. The first book will be Innsmouthbreathers: Cautionary Tales of Cthulhu Mythos [...]|
Martian Migraine Press is now open to submissions for our 2019 anthology project… “Their hand is at your throats, yet ye see Them not; and Their habitation is even one with your guarded threshold.” — H. P. Lovecraft, The Dunwich Horror Monstrous Outlines will be an anthology of horror and weird [...]|

Individuals that believe, somehow, that a dinner of tinned spaghetti and ice cream with a reanimated H. P. Lovecraft would be the height of both culinary and intellectual pleasure. Scholars who [...]|
The cavern mouth awaits, as does the cistern with hidden depths, the tunnel that twists and writhes, the abyssal space that hums with unknown activity. Note the faint glow to the walls as you descend: mere phosphorescent fungi… or something more peculiar? There is a sound of rushing water that you [...]|
Greetings, Migraineers, and please accept our apologies for the long-ish delay between updates! Were it only possible, we’d plant our eldritch kiesters here in the molten core of MMP HQ permanently and only ever make excellent books for your edutainment and enemafication but as more than a few of [...]|
The selection process for the next MMP anthology reflected the theme, Migraineers. There was a sensation of compression, a certain claustrophobia to our reading of the (literally teeming, like worms, or molemen!) submissions, a shortness of breath, a distinct impression that time, and air, and [...]|
We here at MMP HQ know that discerning Migraineers like a certain je ne sais quoi vis a vis your Weird Fiction! It has to push boundaries, must strain at the gates of innovation, and above all, entertain in ways that your standard Lovecraftian narrative simply can't!| martianmigrainepress.com
