On-a-Stick Publications is the label under which I publish games,
gamebooks and game-related items. It is a hobby, not a business; I sell
these items at or below cost, and I print them only because I want them to
be available in print. Prices below are approximately what it cost me to
print the items; shipping is extra.
If you have questions or comments or would like to acquire some of these
items, just e-mail me at demiankatz@gmail.com.
