useful information

The publisher's name came about from a tip: "You should be able to tell from the publisher's name which books are being published". The publisher's name is therefore composed of the three words art (for the graphically elaborate interior design), script (for “writing”) and fantastic (the publisher's overarching literary genre).

Publisher Grit Richter is a sustaining member of the Phantastik-Autor-Netzwerk eV (PAN) and at the beginning of 2020 was the initiator of the #Book Hamsters campaign, which was heavily supported by PAN, its board and members.
