Great Gift Idea #1: Sapling

Sapling Newsletter Logo

Black Lawrence Press staff developed the weekly e-newsletter Sapling to highlight the best of the small press world for writers looking for new venues for their work. We believe in small press publishing, and we’re committed to showcasing up-to-date, streamlined information on the best of the independent publishing world. Each issue profiles a contest, a small press, and a literary journal, and features an interview or article. We’re excited to have put 300 issues into the world, and we have lots more in store.

A one-year subscription (52 issues) is $25 or try out a six-month subscription (26 issues) for $15. Get a subscription for yourself or a friend here.

“Sapling keeps me delightfully, manageably and practically connected with independent publishing opportunities.” – Albert Liau
