About

Crossborder is a meeting of talents across the US-Canada border and the borders of story, character, and technique. It is a collaboration of Leapfrog Press (Fredonia, N.Y.) and Guernica Editions (Toronto, ON). Leapfrog Press seeks writing that expands our connectivity to other human beings and to the range of emotional and literary journeys. Guernica Editions celebrates the pleasurable and profound understanding created along the border where different cultures meet. With Crossborder, the two publishing houses combine their visions and endeavor to give voice to beautiful, powerful literature for the world.
