Editorial Focus

The press publishes two books a year. A modest reading fee pays for the publication of the book. It also publishes winners in four additional no-cost contests: Romance Reigns (submit in January; eight winners announced in February); Summer Stories (submit in May; eight winners announced in June); Harvest Harmonies (submit in September; eight winners announced in October); and Mini Mysteries (submit in November; eight winners announced in December). Each story or poem selected is changed into a shareable meme and posted on social media.

Tips From the Editor

For the books, the winners have all had a strong unifying themes, both in poetry and in nonfiction collections.

For our story-memes, we want fiction or poetry that captures a moment, person, place, or thing that fits within the theme of that particular contest.
