Our #introduction to #bookstodon!

Hello, we are Canongate Books, an independent #publisher of an eclectic mix of #authors for an eclectic and discerning audience of readers. You might know us from the spines of:

Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Lanark by Alasdair Gray
The Book of Form and Emptiness by Ruth Ozeki
The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat by Samin Nosrat
The Outrun by Amy Liptrot
& many, many more.

We're based in Edinburgh and London, and next year we'll be 50. Hello!

A pile of some of the books we publish. They are pictured in a corner against a light background seemingly floating off each other. There are 9 books in the pile, hardbacks and papaerbacks, each more desirable than the last.
The books The Fire People and More Fiya – both poetry collections featuring exceptional work by Black British poets – pictured against a white background (also seeming to float).
A recent book that we have published in hardback: Faith, Hope and Carnage by Nick Cave and Seán O’Hagan. Photographed, again, floating on a white background. It looks *chef's kiss*.
A pile of our books (again floating in front of a white background). They include work by Val McDermid, Travis Alabanza, Rebecca Donner, Ambrose Parry and more. There are 8 books in the pile, hardback and paperback.

Time for an #introduction now that my account is finally on my own instance where I intend it to stay.

I'm a techie and a writer. I first started programming on a Vic20 when I was about 5 years old. I started writing some years later but put it aside for many years.

The last few years I picked it up again, and have published two #scifi novels so far, which you can read more about at galaxybound.com

We are a new instance of #bookwyrm - a social network for tracking your reading, talking about books, writing reviews, and discovering what to read next. A #fediverse alternative to goodreads. We have a particular interest in sharing books related to our love of walking or other outdoor activities but anyone is welcome. ramblingreaders.org @bookstodon #bookstodon
