VISUAL NARRATIVE

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

We are interested in innovative, cutting-edge book-length visual narratives by artist-writers. In particular, we seek literary graphic novels, collections of short graphic fictions, graphic reportage, and graphic memoirs. We are open to a wide range of forms, from the traditional to the experimental and avant-garde. More than any theme or aesthetic approach, our central concern is with literary and artistic excellence. Projects must make a significant contribution to literature.
