Precocious Press

Precocious Press is the independent publishing arm of Infinite Upstart. Founded by me, Michelle Arden Moore, it’s a home for bold, imaginative writing that doesn’t fit neatly into boxes. My first novel, Otherlings, is OUT NOW!

OTHERLINGS

The world is full of magical things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.

Alex Hall is barely holding it together. Between a dead-end London bar job, an explosive temper, and her best friend Zac acting stranger by the day, her life already feels like it’s unravelling.

Then she learns the truth: vampires and werewolves are real. And she’s not quite human either.

When Alex awakens her dangerous powers and meets the mysterious and infuriatingly compelling Ethan, she’s pulled into a hidden war between rival supernatural clans. The vampires say she belongs with them, and the werewolves want to wipe her out.

But Alex isn’t helpless.
She’s a weapon.

Otherlings is the first book in a contemporary LGBTQ+ urban fantasy trilogy set in the dark underbelly of London, where desire bites, loyalty is fragile, and betrayal cuts to the bone.
