M.R.M. Parrott's Blog

RIMRIC / CHARLESTON, SC (31 August, 2025) - M.R.M. Parrott has re-released all 18 of his published books in paperback following a number of years in ebook form only. Each book has been updated with new cover graphics and expanded materials. Some materials include private journal excerpts related to a given book, while others include background reference. Many of the books are expanded editions of previous releases, and all have been updated in ebook form as well.

"For GetWiki.net, my editorial direction has been to host a relatively small collection of articles in Philosophy, Science and the Humanities, which are either corrected and reworked from imported sources, or new and original articles."

GetWiki gained recognition in 2004 when the 1.0 release introduced...

Using the imprint "rimric press", the first publishing project was the hardback edition of Parrott's sixth book, his "beach" novella, To Lie Within the Moment (1998).
