Tilt Press
(a small print press)

We specialize in poetry. Our mission is to offer opportunities to poets who have not yet published a chapbook or full length collection of work. We cater to the emerging poet while maintaining high standards with regards to the craft.

 Tilt publishes three—five chapbooks per year. Our chapbooks are printed on-site in our North Carolina office using high quality cardstock, photo paper, and printing paper. After each initial print run, we will print any chapbook in our catalog on demand. We intend to keep all titles available in our catalog.

 If you are an emerging poet looking to publish your first chapbook manuscript then please read our guidelines. If you are here to browse our catalog, know that we take pride in our work.

Cloud Callout:        What type of poetry does    Tilt like?

We admire devout attention to the line, focused metaphors, complexity & simplicity, lyrical but not formal, strangeness, dry humor, the letter y, fresh turns of phrase, slightly experimental, modern confessional.
