Black Glove Press

About

We are a collective of writers, artists, occultists, surrealists, and weirdos. We are weird, and we like the weird.
We want to transform the literary landscape. We want to fill the shelves and hills with living, moving cities and wild gardens inhabited by all manner of breathing, wriggling things. We want to make a home for you there, too. You who are working so diligently to bring the bright thing, the bloody thing, the world-breaking thing up out of the dark earth.
We pledge to our authors to do everything in our power to properly circulate their books. If we accept your strange seed, we will do our very best to help it grow into the lovely monster that it is.

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.
