Thank you to everyone who sent in manuscripts for our consideration during the month of July. Due to the number of collections we've received and our volunteers' availability, it's taken longer to read and consider all of our possibilities than we'd anticipated. We want to make sure all manuscripts are considered, so updates on our selections will be forthcoming as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience and for your interest in publishing with Red Bird Chapbooks.
