>Hello,
>
>My name is Jessica and I run a small independent press
>out of Los Angeles. I got your email from the
>Poets&Writers list, and I wanted to let you know about
>this new press called Pale House. We do bi-annual
>literary journals and also publish a monthly magazine
>called Society. Our first volume of the Pale House
>anthologies was released in December 05, and already
>the first edition sold out, we got multiple good
>reviews, and held several very successful events at
>venues around L.A. We're planning to release the
>second volume in July of this year. It's a collection
>of short stories and poetry.
>
>We're currently accepting submissions, and we are
>constantly looking for more authors to participate. If
>you have any interest, have any unpublished material
>lying around you could see in an L.A.-based literary
>journal, please send it our way. We will be reading
>all the submissions in the next couple weeks and
>piecing the book together. So the deadline is coming
>up fast, and we want to make Pale House--Volume 2 even
>bigger and better than the first one.
>
>Pale House--Volume 1 involved 23 writers, both
>award-winning established authors and new
>up-and-comers, including:
>
>Richard Krawiec, whose second novel Faith In What? was
>nominated for a Pulitzer Prize,
>
>Eric Miles Williamson, Editor of The American Book
>Review and runner-up for a Pen-Hemingway,
>
>Harold Jaffe, author of ten "docu-fiction" novels and
>Editor-in-Chief of Fiction International,
>
>Larry Fondation, winner of the FC2 National Fiction
>Competition in 1994, among many others.
>
>Pale House has been growing more and more of a
>reputation around Los Angeles to be a very promising
>literary press, interested in innovative literature
>and developing a community of contemporary talent.
>
>"...I recently discovered the works of the "a PALE
>HOUSE Collective," (edited by Brent Pearson and
>Jessica
>Garrison). PALE HOUSE is a Los Angeles based coalition
>of writers
>who have just put out their first published anthology
>of
>works. I have no idea if the work of the PALE HOUSE
>authors is
>fiction or non. They feel authentic and charged and
>are lending
>their voices to a gang of alternative writers that
>have been
>springing up around Los Angeles. A gang that writes so
>honestly,
>that the line between fiction and truth is blurred..."
