Call For Submissions

What Book Press is actively seeking full-length works of poetry and prose in any genre–fiction, nonfiction, hybrid–through April 30th. In keeping with our eclectic collection of titles, we are looking for work that thrills us with a bending of literary expectation, or a striking use of form, or a poignant portrayal of the human condition–or (why not?), all three.

And as ever, we are always drawn to writing that’s as interested in language as we are. Surprise us!

Works accepted in this round of submissions will launch in October 2027.  You can find more information about guidelines and how to submit here.
