Jaded Ibis is feminist press committed to publishing socially engaged literature with an emphasis on the voices of people of color, people with disabilities, and other historically silenced and culturally marginalized voices.

We're interested in submissions from authors who have a distinctive voice and write books that explore the lives and concerns of those who identify as women and/or people of color.

Compelling narratives that transcend the status quo to introduce new perspectives are our preference.

While we seek prose, our poetic sensibilities love rich, vivid writing that is mindful of the music/rhythm of language.

BatCat Press publishes limited handbound editions of awesome poetry and prose. We aim to publish books, chapbooks, and broadsides that are the perfect combination of excellent writing and interesting design. Part of our mission is to provide students a unique behind-the-scenes experience in publishing. The press is staffed and operated by students of Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School in Midland, PA.

Quirky is good, quality is key. We especially like work that is intelligent and that will appeal to a broad audience. We welcome submissions of all genres, styles, and forms, whether conventional or hard-to-describe. Multimedia submissions are welcome but must include a strong writing element. Submissions may be of any length, but must be able to "stand alone."

Kweli is a quarterly literary publication that celebrates cultural kinships and the role of the literary imagination. It seeks high-quality literary work that is beautiful, sustaining, and profound, and its mission is to nurture emerging writers of color and create opportunities for their voices to be recognized and valued.

In our shared space, you will come to know the lived experience of people of color. Our memories are wrapped inside the music of the Muscogee, the blues songs of the South, the clipped patois of the Caribbean. In English and Spanish, Zulu and Tagalog, a useful past is lying down next to an ailing present. Listen. Grow. Lift.
