Today’s the day!
Six weeks ago, we announced the upcoming debut poetry collection from artist Steven Ogg. Since then, we’ve released some extracts of his work, put limited edition signed copies up for pre-order and sold out Libreria Bookshop in London’s East End.
And here we are, Monday 3rd June 2024, the OFFICIAL publication day for Catharse-is, Volume One. If you are still not aware of Steven’s poetry, here is the blurb to the book:
With Catharse-is, Steven Ogg has created an Ogg-mented reality of many cathartic moments we experience in life. In sharing these, Ogg believes it can help us feel less alone and begin the healing process as it did for him throughout this journey. Marcel Proust wrote that, "ideas come to us as the successors to griefs, and griefs, at the moment when they change into ideas, lose some part of their power to injure the heart". Ogg hopes that this book provides the opportunity to support us all in moving forward with hope and a little less pain in our hearts. Read aloud for further enjoyment.
Please head over to the Pegasus Publishers Instagram account, where Steven is taking over for the day - posting readings, Q+A’s and showing us an insight into his love of books! If you are reading this after the 3rd, Steven’s full Instagram takeover will be available under the ‘Steven Ogg’ highlight at the top of our page.
We look forward to Steven’s Libreria event on Wednesday 5th June and look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible - it’s going to be a celebration of Steven’s immaculate work and writing!
In addition, stay tuned for further announcements, competitions and content to do with Catharse-is. This is only the beginning!

Extract - Masie Myres: Two Worlds
An extract from Tony M.Adams’ middle grade fantasy quest, where a 13-year-old girl holds the key to the secrets that could save the fate of the world... It was wet, warm, and slow-moving. Masie knew precisely what it was. As usual, Masie’s dog, Archie, had got in her bedroom and woke her up with a big, wet lick to her face. “Ewwww, Archie…” Masie mumbled, covering her head with her quilt. Archie sat down, his nose inches from Masie’...
