Emergency Press

Emergency Press is based in New York and publishes books of fiction, poetry, non-fiction, and emergent forms that fall outside these traditional categories. EP books are available in bookstores and through major online booksellers. Every year, the press hosts an international book contest.

The Emergency Press International Book Contest for 2013 is now closed. Thank you to everyone who entered! The winner of the contest will be announced on the Emergency Press website in October.
