Hi everyone,

Following the successful launch of https://thebristolschoolofwriting.co.uk/ and the first anthology of stories and poems, I'm starting a new project, a very simple publishing house, Suspensions Press. 

Submissions of fiction, essays, memoir and poetry up to 40,000 words. I will collaborate with you to edit your manuscript, and selected authors will be published. The books will be printed and sold via Amazon, and you will need to be active in promoting your work. Interested? Have a look... https://suspensionspress.co.uk/
