About Me |
|
| Manic D Press was founded by Jennifer Joseph in 1984 as an alternative outlet for young writers seeking to bring their work into print. We are an award-winning literary press based in San Francisco, California publishing fiction (novels and short stories), poetry, art, comix, cultural studies, and alternative travel books. We represent a diverse group of unique writers and artists, with emphasis on those who have been shunned by the traditional publishing establishment for lacking commercial viability, regardless of their talent or future promise. Manic D Press books are distributed to the trade throughout the US by Consortium , Last Gasp , SPD , and all major wholesalers. Canadian distribution: PGC, and UK / European distribution is through Turnaround. Visitwww.manicdpress.com to order direct. Here's Manic D publisher Jennifer Joseph talking about books and anarchy at the 2007 Bay Area Anarchist Bookfair - w/thanks to videographer Erika Ransom... And here's a very fun new video made by our friends at Creativity Explored for outsider artist Michael Bernard Loggins' Imaginationally: Michael's Lovable Fun of Dictionaries ... Enjoy! Here's a nice little reminiscence about the '90s SF spoken word scene by Stephen Elliot that ran in the SF Chronicle on Sunday ... time flies when yer havin' fun! |
