Horse Less Press

Horse Less loves DoubleCross, so we’re sharing their open reading period announcement here!

 

1) DoubleCross Press will be reading manuscripts from December 1st–31st. For this reading period we will be looking for:

• our new all-letterpress chapbook series of tiny poetry manuscripts: 7 pages or less
• our Poetics of the Handmade series of essays on small press culture: this series publishes essays by contemporary hand-bookmakers and writers who engage with the handmade book as publishers, promoters, or curators. With an eye to the book’s past, the series seeks to illuminate the forms, connotations, and communities of the handmade book in early 21st century micropress culture.

Rather than charging a reading fee, we ask that you SUPPORT SMALL PRESSES by buying a chapbook from us or from another small press you admire. 

Please submit manuscripts in PDF or Word formats to: doublecrosspress@gmail.com. We will respond to submissions in the new year!

 

It’s great to see Tim Earley’s Descriptions of Rural Life and Scenery on Jonathon Sturgeon’s Best Indie Fiction and Poetry of 2014 list over at Flavorwire.  He has some great company! Check out all these books!

Did you know that you can pre-order Nathan Hauke’s Every Living One, due to release in January? Did you know you can pre-order the entire 2015 catalog of full-length books, including not only Every Living One but also books by Nikki Wallschlaeger, Anne Cecelia Holmes, and a collab by Jared Harvey and Sara Peck?
