Up The Staircase

Up the Staircase is a quarterly publication dedicated and devoted to maintaining a respectable, and professional business that reflects the passions, disappointments, successes and failures of our day and age. We specialize in the promotion of new poets, as well as recognized authors. We showcase passionate, thoughtful, and serious writers who express a unique vision and voice.

Our taste leans more towards confessional writing, although not exclusively. We appreciate writers who do not merely record their emotions on paper, but also place importance on craft and construction. We desire works that are groundbreaking and shocking, while still maintaining a high level of craftsmanship through careful attention to and use of prosody. These works should not only describe events and occurences, but rather explore and examine self-revelations that uncover human truths, creating a close connection with its reader.

We are looking for poetry, prose, short stories, flash fiction, and essays.

We also do literary reviews on poetry chapbooks and novels.

About OW!
Outsider Writers have been distributing chapbooks in dark subterranean caverns for too long. The corporate presses and literary institutions have no vision. The media is irrelevant. It's time to rise into the sun!

Our Goal: Unite the write! We will join forces where we are strong, eliminate duplication of effort where we are weak and put the power and authority over literature back into the hands of the only legitimate owners: the authors and the readers.
