Threadsuns Press

About

“Threadsuns” is the title of a poem written by Paul Celan, published in the 1967 collection Breathturn. Pierre Joris’s translation of that poem reads:

Threadsuns

above the grayblack wastes.

A tree-

high thought

grasps the light-tone: there are

still songs to sing beyond

mankind.

The mission of Threadsuns is to act as an amplifier for such songs. Like Celan, the press will not be satisfied with a straightforward approach or easy resolutions. It will seek out work that challenges our assumptions from a variety of perspectives, publishing books of prose, poetry written in English, as well as translated texts of any genre.

Threadsuns is a teaching press of the High Point University English Department. Students assist in all aspects of the publishing workflow, including acquisitions, print and web editing, production, and marketing.

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.
