Writer Questions
Q: Why does Modern Artist Press focus on literary fiction?
A: Recent industry discussion has questioned whether “literary fiction” is still a meaningful term, but I take an expansive view on definitions. I believe in the power of great writing to entertain, depict, question, excite, inspire, and connect. Novels and short story collections do all of this and more. I am also interested in the ways authors are incorporating genre elements into literary writing, focusing on what happens in the story and how the story is told.
Q. How do I submit my manuscript? How long do I have to wait for a response?
A. Modern Artist Press accepts submissions year round. Please see our submission guidelines. I read all of the submissions, and I aim to respond to each submission within 6-8 weeks.
