Resident Folio, the page tender

The little story

Paper Moon Press

Paper Moon Press is a small print shop with a typewriter by the window, a stack of books and a blank page that floats up from the press like a little moon. Nothing has been written yet, which is the best part.

Folio is the page tender. Folio keeps the sheets clean and greets every new idea with the same line: this is the most promising print of the day. It is hard to argue with that.

It is a quiet, creative page for writers, editors and anyone with a manuscript that is not quite ready to leave the desk. It is a premium design, so you can preview it first.
