Noon At Night Publications
© 2013 by Rob Krabbe
Noon At Night, the name, was inspired by a verse from the Bible that we found while in a meeting of band mates in 1984:
Isaiah 58:10
New King James Version (NKJV)
“If you extend your soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light shall dawn in the darkness, and your darkness shall be as the noonday.”
After a hundred plus names were considered, we chose Noon At Night as the final name for our punk rock band. When we played, our angst was unbridled, but like so many things angst fades. The name, however, lives on, and since 2008 Noon at Night has been publishing all types of fine art, books, poetry, songs, films, web sites, and doing all manner of work in digital marketing and design. And occasionally a little punk rock, old school.
Sometime over the past few years, the company called NoonAtNight Publications was born. It didn’t happen overnight but, as many companies are founded by mistake, NANP came from a need for artists and authors to publish their projects in an increasingly changing digital world. As we got more and more requests for help by creative, but less computer savvy artists, we found that there was a market for such “publishing” help and thats how NoonAtNight the indie publisher was born.
Traditional publishing is dwindling and indie publishing is on fire right now. With Kindle, and other eBook formats as well as POD (print on demand) publishing available for all sorts of art, including books and music, artists now have much more control over their work. Artists that only a few short years ago had a tough time getting their work published by traditional publishing companies can now publish on their own. And the need for formatting, design helps and marketing of those projects is what gave way to the need for a new breed of publishing company.
So, welcome to NoonAtNight Publications. We are excited to be a part of this new digital age!
From a Krabbe Desk
Writing, for me, is always just that. At the outset of each day, I spend a certain amount of time firing up the head, and sorting through what comes. In this process I have kept journal pages since I was seven years old. Hundreds of thousands of pages, and most of them, written before the word blog was anything more than a misspelling. So here I will do my meandering and here I will keep my journal from this day forward (until I stop). ...more
