Keyhole Press Joins Dzanc Books

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

KEYHOLE PRESS JOINS DZANC BOOKS

January 4, 2010, Ann Arbor, MI— In an effort to further our mission for bringing great writing to a broader audience, Dzanc Books is proud to announce that Keyhole Press has become an imprint of Dzanc as of January 1, 2010.  As a 501(c)3 nonprofit publisher dedicated to publishing top drawer literary fiction and sponsoring free readings and workshops across the country, Dzanc is excited by the opportunity to work with the editor of Keyhole Press, Peter Cole. Keyhole will serve as an invaluable addition to Dzanc, and allow us to publish wonderful works of fiction, in both book and literary journal form.   Keyhole has an impressive list of writers including WILLIAM WALSH, STEPHANIE JOHNSON, SHELLIE ZACHARIA and has forthcoming work scheduled from AARON BURCH and MATT BELL, and also publishes the wonderful Keyhole Magazine, a fantastic literary journal.  Furthermore, Keyhole is developing a strong presence in the Nashville literary scene.  Dzanc is excited to formalize our relationship with Keyhole and looks forward to doing many wonderful things with Keyhole in the future.

 

With Keyhole Press, and the recent addition of Absinthe: New European Writing, joining OV Books, Black Lawrence Press, and Monkeybicycle in the Dzanc fold, we will now be even more involved with the publication of both online and print journals, and have our hand in poetry, non-fiction and translated material, as well as the literary fiction we're already known for.  Our publishing of great works will range from major hardcover releases on down to 200-copy chapbooks by the best writers Dzanc has to offer.

 

ABOUT DZANC BOOKS

 

Dzanc Books was created in 2006 by Steven Gillis and Dan Wickett to advance great writing and to champion those writers who do not fit neatly into the marketing niches of for-profit presses. As a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization, Dzanc Books not only publishes literary fiction, but works in partnership with literary journals to advance their readership at every level. Dzanc is also fully committed to developing educational programs in schools and organizes workshops and Writer-In-Residence programs in Michigan and elsewhere to meet that goal, as well as our sponsorship of the Dzanc Prize, given to a writer for the best combination of a literary work in progress, and a literary community service.  For further details and more information on Dzanc Books, its mission, titles, authors, awards, and programs, please visit www.dzancbooks.org .
