Perro Verlag Unnassociated Press 2005-03-04 20:51:49 Perro Verlag was founded by Florentine Perro in 2004 with the intention of publishing high-quality artists zines and comics by local, national and international artists. We have published four titles so far and our next project is the catalogue for The Infinity Project, the exhibition by 100 artists at the Helen Pitt Gallery in Vancouver. Our current titles are The Famous Cartoon Wars at Lucky's Comics, Bunny Stookles in the Karaoke Mines, Owen Plummer Remixed, and Discours de la Poesie Epique. See our add for full details.
Les Figues Press Unnassociated Press 2005-03-21 16:43:46 Les Figues Press was founded by a group of artists, writers, and concerned citizens who share an aesthetic philosophy of passion plus rigor to the infinite degree. The Press believes artists have a moral obligation to create artefacts that are beautiful, meaningful, fiercely accountable to history and geography, and means to serve both as model and rebuke. The Press is committed to publishing works of vertiginous aesthetic merit, unpublishable length, and pleasurable demands. Les Figues Press, through its principle publication, TRENCHART, releases such works in their entirety, considering this cohesion particularly important in a pointedly fragmented world. The Press resists basic market-driven standards of quality, morality, and political identity found in the tried and untrue sectors of mainstream publishing and the current apres-garde, and is perfectly happy to slit its own throat. The Press intends in the most premeditated fashion to champion the trinity of Beauty, Belief, and Bawdry.
Ugly Duckling Presse Unnassociated Press 2005-02-25 23:07:26 <p>Ugly Duckling Presse is a nonprofit art & publishing collective producing small to mid-size editions of new poetry, translations, lost works, and artist's books. The Presse favors emerging, international, and "forgotten" writers with well-defined formal or conceptual projects that are difficult to place at other presses. Its full-length books, chapbooks, artist’s books, broadsides, magazine and newspaper all contain handmade elements, calling attention to the labor and history of bookmaking.</p> <p>In collaboration with Loudmouth Collective and with various visual and performance artists, Ugly Duckling Presse also supports and participates in the creation of works off paper: these may be performed, or they may exist on digital video, CD, or tree bark. On or off the page, UDP endeavors to create spaces in which people can have an experience of art free of expectation, coercion, and utility.</p>
Futurepoem Books Unnassociated Press 2005-03-27 20:49:37 On Futurepoem books Futurepoem books is an all-volunteer run New York City-based publishing collaborative dedicated to presenting innovative works of contemporary poetry, prose and hybrid work by both emerging and important underrepresented writers. Our rotating editorial panel shares the responsibility for selecting, designing and promoting the books we produce. We tend to publish work that challenges traditional conceptions of literature and literary genre and explores new possibilities of form. We also place a high value on collaboration between visual design and literature for the books that we produce. We currently publish two titles per year and our main source of distribution is increasingly individual subscribers. Besides publishing single-author works, Futurepoem hopes to occasionally invite writers or multi-genre artists to produce work for special projects that is then documented in print or via other media.
StringTown Press Unnassociated Press 2005-02-25 23:07:26 Press from Medical Lake (near Spokane) publishes poetry, short fiction and an annual literary magazine.
Cranky Unnassociated Press 2005-03-06 21:45:31 Founded last year in Seattle, Washington, Cranky Literary Journal publishes prose, poetry, creative nonfiction, book reviews, and interviews with writers. The journal appears triannually and includes an array of work from many styles and schools. Our only standard for selection is the quality of the work and our own aesthetic. The editors particularly enjoy writing which displays music, wit, and a fondness for language and word play. We are currently reading for the fifth issue.
Hawthorne Books Unnassociated Press 2005-03-25 21:05:56 Founded in 2001, Hawthorne Books publishes four to six titles a year of American literary fiction and narrative non-fiction with a commitment to offering international titles as well.

Chiasmus Press Unnassociated Press 2005-03-05 19:17:24 Chiasmus Press is a Northwest, Portland-based literary collective intent on printing the most innovative emerging authors, those who have been excluded or have not yet been co-opted by the mainstream-print-industry or well established, often academically entrenched, forms of Avant-gardisms. As Chiasmus (ky-AZ-mus) n. is defined as a reversal in the order of words in two otherwise parallel phrases, our purpose is to promote a reversal in the order of words in two otherwise parallel realities. Chiasmus Press is a mutating imprint (or imprinting mutation), evolving from Two Girls Press, founded by Lidia Yuknavitch, the publisher of Northwest Edge: Deviant Fictions, as well as the literary magazine, two girls review.
Projectile Publishing Society Unnassociated Press 2005-03-04 18:45:50 Projectile Publishing Society is a non profit society located in Vancouver Canada. We are a project based publishing house. Projectile began in 1999 as a group of artists who wanted to publish a magazine called Trajectory. Sadly, all printed copies of Trajectory's first issue Emergency were destroyed in a warehouse fire associated with the Y2K crisis. After over five years, we are on to other projects now. Most of our online activity takes form through Rubyarts.org.
