About the press

Bilingual Press / Editorial Bilingüe is a distinguished publisher of Chicano, Latino, and Latin American literature, founded in 1973 at Arizona State University by Gary Keller. It emerged from the Chicano literary movement as a vital platform for bilingual and Spanish-language works, aiming to correct the historical underrepresentation of these voices in mainstream publishing. The press is committed to publishing high-quality fiction, poetry, drama, and scholarship that reflect the diversity of Hispanic cultures in the United States and beyond. Its enduring mission is to foster cross-cultural understanding through literature and to support emerging and established writers who write in Spanish, English, or both.

Manuscript submissions

Reading periodOpen now

Writers should submit complete manuscripts or well-developed proposals that align with the press's focus on Chicano, Latino, and Latin American literature. While the press accepts works in English, Spanish, or bilingual formats, it prioritizes projects with cultural and literary merit. Before submitting, review the press's catalog to understand its aesthetic and scholarly range. Include a cover letter, author bio, and a concise synopsis. Simultaneous submissions are generally accepted, but notify the press promptly if your work is accepted elsewhere. Response times may vary, so patience is advised.
