Breadbox Chapbook Series

A project of The Head & the Hand Press (see other related projects).

This project is on indefinite hiatus. Check their site to find out whether this is a submission and/or publication hiatus. (March 2019)

About

We call our chapbook series “The Breadbox” because we want the stories we publish to serve as a source of fresh ideas, preserved in our chapbook vending machine for optimal quality and taste. Once selected, stories will be printed, displayed, and sold in countertop vending machines in coffee houses and other fine establishments in Philadelphia, fueling a compulsion to consume good writing wherever and whenever possible. We will also include two of our chapbook stories and/or essays in H&H's Community Supported Publishing "harvest" sent to members who want to sample the fruits of our Press in a way that's healthy for both independent publishing and one's brain/soul.

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.
