Sad Press is run by Jo Lindsay Walton and Samantha Walton.
We publish poetry chapbooks by individual authors and collections of experimental writing. We have a lot of projects on the go right now, so we’re not accepting any submissions.
Sad Press was set up in 2009 and now aim to publish around five books a year. Sad Press is based in Bristol and Edinburgh.
