Call For Submissions
1455 is proud to announce 1455 books — a new publishing imprint dedicated to authors whose work embodies creativity with purpose. This isn’t just about printing pages; it’s about building a home for stories that deserve to live beyond the noise.
In an era of infinite content, we believe stories should still mean something. 1455 books will publish original works and anthologies that amplify diverse voices, emerging talent, and bold ideas that expand our shared human narrative.
The first projects under this new imprint include anthologies celebrating young poets and women writers, with more opportunities ahead for storytellers to publish, connect, and be seen.
