About

We're an independent press based out of beautiful Baltimore, MD. We specialize in handmade, limited edition chapbooks and full-length publications by established as well as emerging writers. If you enjoy strong, straight-forward poetry and prose that's just a little off, then we've got something for you.

Important: Pitch first.
The editors may not respond to all submissions. After waiting a reasonable amount of time, assume your submission will not be accepted.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
