GenPop Books is an independent publisher of poetry, fiction, non-fiction, cross-genre work, and sundry literary curiosities.1 Paper Publications We will resume reading full-length manuscript submissions in Spring 2010. Please check back for details. Online Publications GenPop publishes online-only content in No Contest. Submissions to the journal will open again in Spring 2010. GenPop Books is also... GenPop Books is also a consortium2 offering not only the products of its members and partners, but also their collective skills. Presently we offer design, marketing, distribution, and promotional services: we can take care of a few things for your press or project, or we can take care of all of it.3 Our staff has experience with an array of projects including online literary magazines, non-profit literary organizations, and author's personal websites. Future GenPop projects include a books-for-prisons program,4 and an online bookstore for new, used, and rare books (primarily the small press variety).

We expect that our bread and butter will remain the old standbys, of course: textbook romances, true-crime children's books, DMZ travel guides.... We also seem to like poetry—probably because it's a lucrative investment for any publisher. 2 Membership in the GenPop Books Consortium is by invitation only (we need to feel wholly supportive of our members/partners and their missions), but we welcome queries. If you are the owner of small press or literary organization, or are interested in joining for other reasons, feel free to contact us. 3 Not to be confused with being published by GenPop Books: we choose our manuscripts from those discovered during open reading periods, contests, and the explorations and suggestions of our editors. We offer any combination of design, marketing, distribution, and promotional services to presses, organizations, and individuals, either as part of the GPB Consortium or as independent contractors, but not under the GenPop Books imprint. 4 Although GenPop Books is a separate entity from GenPop.org, the blog "devoted to bringing prison issues to light," we strongly support their mission and encourage you to visit their website.
