Gasher Press

Manuscript submissions

Gasher Press accepts submissions through periodic open reading periods, with specific calls for BIPOC writers and other underrepresented groups. Before submitting, carefully review the guidelines on their website, as eligibility criteria and reading periods are strictly enforced. Prepare a polished manuscript that demonstrates both technical mastery and a distinctive voice; the press favors work that feels necessary and urgent. Simultaneous submissions are typically accepted, but notify immediately if your work is placed elsewhere. Response times may vary, so patience is advised. Above all, engage with the press's catalog to understand its aesthetic and political commitments—your submission should resonate with that ethos.
