Just our every-other year tweet as proof that we're a real, active press - just not so much on Twitter. We've released 4 titles this year, with 2 more coming soon. (@Lisaquarius tends to share the big announcements, too.) Thankful to still be doing this after almost 10 yrs! 💗

My twitter-savvy editor moved on to a different gig, but just a reminder that we exist and will open for chapbook manuscripts in about two weeks!

@neongolden Well shucks, we care about you too. Looking forward to reading your manuscripts, please do submit all your chaps.

[Paper Nautilus @APaperNautilus]

@neongolden It looks to us like you could submit both to one contest, or one to each, probably not both to both though. Send us everything.
