Director, Patti White, explains what we like to read & publish:
Our mission as publishers is to foster work that addresses the notion of place, whether construed as location or situation. We want work that is at risk, however that is understood. And we want work that has edge, heft, and weight. To put it another way, we are not particularly interested in the facile, the precious, the pretentious, or the gimmick. If I had to produce a rubric for a manuscript, it might list things like facility with language, control of voice, attention to line, respect for the reader, things like that. But really, I want a manuscript like a spiral galaxy: radical movement, blinding light, incredible density at the center.
