Interview with Shelagh M.
Rowan-Legg
When did you start publishing? Why did you start publishing?
I started publishing in the fall of 1999. First it was so I would have an
official name to publish my own chapbook under, but then I decided to publish
other people's work as well.
Briefly describe the type of work you publish.
It's mostly poetry, though I have done 1 prose book. It's almost always a
first chapbook for the author; not particular style, just someone who gets
my attention, who I think has potential as a serious writer.
Do you accept unsolicited submissions? How do you decide what to publish?
I do not accept submissions. I usually find the person through friends or
at readings. I hear their work, decide I like it, and publish them.
How many chapbooks have you published? (both number of books & volume of
books)
5 chapbooks so far, approximately 500 total books.
Any advice for people thinking of starting a small press?
Publish what you want, when you want, how you want. Don't let anyone pressure you.
