Resources

As a community-oriented literary press, we are eager to support readers, writers, and other presses at all stages of the publishing process. To that end, we've started building a running list of resources, which will continue to grow as we learn more together.

Substacks/Newsletters

• Belle Point Press!
• Lit Mag News (Becky Tuch)
• Pine State Publicity
• Rooted Magazine (a newer, solid magazine based in Mississippi)
• Poetry Bulletin (Emily Stoddard): Emily also maintains an amazing spreadsheet of poetry publishers; here's the current version.

Networks/Databases

• CLMP (we are proud members! Also includes a lit mag/press directory)
