Dead Man Publishing, LLC

Dead Man Publishing is a project of the gut...desire and hope and blindness. The vision is to focus on writing as architecture. Words, space and punctuation are the bits with which we build that architecture. Collaboration is the natural tool to accomplish that vision. It allows the author to see her work as a piece making a whole, a part taking its meaning from outside of itself. Innovative Minds is our series dedicated to collaborative projects. There is also an annual Innovative Minds Series competition in the works, giving new authors a chance to publish their collaborations. Midwest Voices is a new series that will highlight local creativity and diversity by publishing works regardless of genre. Relevance and genius are the only criteria. R&D Chaps: Think Nagasaki meets syntax, written quietly as a bit of romance. Or something else. We don’t care. Make it new. Mid-June is our facebook zine. The showcases are an in-depth look at the work of an individual or group.
