Ashland Creek Press book buzz...


"The writing in The Names of Things is beautiful, hypnotic, and exacting; this is a book to be read slowly, to be savored and absorbed as each piece of the story falls into place." —Huffington Post Books

"Fischer’s appealing fiction debut [Falling Into Green] introduces feisty Irish Latina eco-psychologist Esmeralda Green…the aptly named Dr. Green and her friends are fresh enough to recycle." —Publishers Weekly

"Fischer's debut mystery [Falling Into Green] introduces a fascinating topic—ecopsychology." —Library Journal

"Combining mystery, romance, vampires, and strong vegan and environmental messages, [Out of Breath] will have readers of light paranormal novels running to the next book in Richmond’s trilogy." —Booklist

Out of Breath "blends genre tradition with West Coast environmentalism…the result feels fresh and original." —Kirkus Reviews
