Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Waywiser Books is an independent literary press with a primary commitment to poetry. Waywiser Books embodies a plurality of poetics and craft. Operating according to democratic editorial principles, the press champions writing that is aware of formal inheritances while being fresh, innovative, and surprising. Waywiser aspires to be a supportive home for authors; to publish emerging talent while also promoting the work of accomplished writers and rescuing others from undeserved neglect; to reach a wide audience of readers and booksellers; to champion diversity and democratic practices on our board and in our organization; and to publish striking, intelligent, and memorable books in elegant physical form; and to honor the legacy of the Waywiser Press.
