Parlor Press See other projects related to this listing. About Parlor Press LLC is an independent publisher and distributor of scholarly and trade books in high quality print and digital formats. It was founded in 2002 to address the need for an alternative scholarly, academic press attentive to emergent ideas and forms while maintaining the highest standards of quality, credibility, inclusivity, and integrity. The Press's primary goal is to publish outstanding writing in a variety of subjects. Because the Press is unencumbered by the bureaucratic machinery of older publishing entities, the stress can be more on excellence and innovation than on marketability or pedigree. The Press is managed by scholars and specialists in their respective fields, presently covering eighteen book series, from initial peer review through production, distribution, and marketing. Parlor Press books, authors, and editors have won numerous national and international awards. New focus areas include multimedia writing, graphic narratives and comics, games and game studies, film, and other hybrid forms of print, visual, aural, and haptic media.
