Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Red Rook Press is a blossoming publishing house for developing novelists and poets. Our goal is to foster and premiere the creative minds of undergraduate and graduate students still establishing themselves in the writing world by giving them the opportunity to bring their voice to life. We crave any form and genre, from high fantasy to literary fiction, from sonnets to freeform. And you don’t have to be an English student either– sometimes the best voices are those we don’t expect. We’d love to publish writers and poets from any academic background. With our staff made up of undergraduates dedicated to every process of publication and a stellar collection of professional advisors, we hope to bring two new books of prose and poetry into the world every academic year.

Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
We would suggest including title, word count, genre, and a short author bio in a cover letter. Otherwise, it's usually best to be concise.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
