About me:

'Tales From Harbour City' Available now Broken Umbrella Press is a small home-press set up by artist and writer Christian Butler to distribute work which has little chance of being published anywhere else. The focus of Broken Umbrella Press is short fiction, though drawerings, poetry and even a music CD have also featured. Our zines are now absolutely free and can be picked up from Rough Trade Brick Lane, the White Cube, Hoxton, BookArt Bookshop, Old Street, Koenig Books, Charing Cross Road, Waterstone's Gower Street and Islington, the Undereducated shop at the Fishmarket, Northampton, from Resident Records in Brighton or directly from us. Distribution is so far pitiful, so please help me work up some interest. .. LayoutsnUCLEArcENTURy.COM's ..

    Thank you so much for "bandfriending" us, Broken Umbrella Press! We truly appreciate it.

    We hope that you find something of ours that will wriggle into your ears, burrow down next to your heart (in a good way), and compel you to ROB US BLIND (again, in a good way: "Free downloads, ahoy!”…that is, if Myspace  ever gets around to reactivating that feature).

    If you like us, please, tell a friend.
    If you hate us, hell, tell an enemy!

    Be well,
    GUSSY
