>SMALL PRESSES & LITERARY MAGAZINES CONTINUE TO INNOVATE & THRIVE By Debra Leigh Scott | New York Journal of Books:

“Their offerings are not the books you find on the front tables of a Borders or Barnes & Noble. Yet these books offer some of the finest writing in the country. In fact, it has long been the case that the small press community discovers, publishes, and supports much of the finest literary talent in America. Were it not for these independent small presses, these university presses, these literary magazines, the voices of many excellent writers would never be heard.”
