First and foremost let me start off by saying thank you to the men and women that protect our country every day. We shouldnt just think of those abroad fighting for freedom but those here at home as well keeping us safe. Thank you to those of the Armed Forces, our National Gaurd and our Police Officers. Thank you to all of you, for risking your lives to keep this us safe. Happy Memorial Day.
So we have been quiet these last few months. We are working hard to move forward in this business. We are a publisher that wants to tough it out this business, we will be here as long as you are here wanting to read.
We celebrated our one year anniversary. April 15th 2008 was our opening day. We have grown from a company of four great books to now TWENTY. It has been an amazing year and I would love to thank all of my authors for helping build Dark Roast Press to the company we are today. Here is to our future!
As we celebrated, reviews for our books came in. Congrats to our authors and thank you to the reviewers for taking the time to read our work.

Besides the great reviews recieved two of our authors have been interviewed. Angela Sparrow was interview by Circle of Seven ( click to hear the podcast ). Jesse Fox was interviewed by Dr. Dick (click here for PART ONE and PART TWO of the podcast).
WAIT THERE IS MORE! On May 5th we released two books.
"Forbidden Views" Volume one is the first of a bi-annual anthology
featuring ficlets about those salacious things we aren't supposed to
see but want to. Volume One has five shorts that we are sure will make
you blush. This edition features authors Tyree Kimber, founder of this
anthology - Christopher Newman and our very own editor extraordinaire -
Helgaleena. Click on the cover to read the descriptions, carefully.
