Awst Press is an independent literary publisher in Austin, TX featuring impressive work from diverse voices. 

We publish authors whose work fits our aesthetic and fulfills our vision of inclusivity and community. We endeavor to support authors through each project and beyond by increasing their respective audiences, playing an active role in the editorial and publishing process, promoting their activities well past their publication with Awst via the website and social media, and seeking ways to compensate them for their efforts by offering royalties and identifying grants for which they might be eligible. Updates on authors, news, and upcoming events are posted regularly on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.  

Our first contest, the Awst Press Book Prize, will be open for submissions 2/15/19 - 5/15/19. Check out the contest page for more specifics.
