Launch of Publishing the Underground, an ambitious new experiment in participatory publishing

One of Inpress’s brilliant new publishers, Dead Ink, aims to use multiple channels to fund and produce their forthcoming titles, challenging traditional publishing models while simultaneously growing the audience for their new literary fiction.  

Supported by Arts Council England, Publishing the Underground will bring three more daring emerging British authors to their cutting edge and beautifully produced New Voices series. The 2015/16 list will feature Harry Gallon, Lochlan Bloom and Wes Brown to continue the success that began with SJ Bradley, Sally Ashton and Richard Smyth in 2014.

The new platform launches today, 1st of October 2015.  www.publishingtheunderground.com

Dead Ink invites you to join them at one of their launch events in Manchester and London to meet the new authors and enjoy a few complimentary drinks. If you're really lucky, Wes might take you out for a curry, but no promises, and if he does, guard your lager with your life.
