Essay Press Open Book
Contest ~ submissions
now open until April 1st
Essay Press is now
reading for its first open-book contest, to be judged by Essay author Kristin
Prevallet. We particularly welcome book-length manuscripts that extend or
challenge the formal range of nonfiction, including but not limited to: lyric
essays and prose poems or poetics; experimental biography and autobiography;
innovative approaches to journalism, experimental historiography, criticism,
scholarship, and philosophy.
Simultaneous
submissions, multiple submissions, collaborative manuscripts, digital and
hybridized text/art manuscripts are all encouraged. Each completed submission
will be considered with care by multiple readers. We will announce our contest
winner in summer, and will publish the book by early 2016. We will consider all
submitted manuscripts for additional publishing possibilities.

About Essay Press: Essay Press is dedicated
to publishing artful, innovative and culturally relevant prose. We are looking
for prose that has something to say, essays that both demand and deserve to
stand alone.
