Submissions: BatCat Press
BatCat Press was officially founded in 2009, led by managing editor Deanna Baringer and a staff of six intrepid high school students. With the support of Lincoln Park Performing Arts Charter School, in Midland PA, BatCat Press has grown up and established itself as an independent publisher specializing in handmade limited editions of new works by both first time and established authors. Manuscripts may be of any length, short or long, as long as you consider the work to be able to stand alone. BatCat Press encourages writers to submit during the summer months (June 1 – August 31). Submissions received at other times during the year will be added to our queue and response times may be quite long.
THIS MEANS CHAPBOOKS ARE WELCOMED!!
