We don't discount our writers
Loblolly Press is an independent Southern literary press based in Asheville, NC.
Loblolly Press publishes contemporary poetry and fiction rooted in the American South. We share profits equitably with our authors, publish small batches and first editions, and believe books should outlast trends. Our Substack is where the publishing happens in public — the decisions, the drafts, the debuts.
There really is a literary community here, and we show up for each other. — Andrew Mack, as quoted in Poets & Writers
