About

Dzanc Books was founded in 2006 to advance great writing and champion those writers who don't fit neatly into the marketing niches of for-profit presses. As a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization, Dzanc Books not only publishes excellent books of literary fiction, but works in partnership with literary journals to advance their readership at every level. Dzanc is also fully committed to developing educational programs in the schools and has begun organizing many such workshops and Writers In Residency programs. The authors already signed by Dzanc are extraordinary, award winning talents, including Roy Kesey, Yannick Murphy, Peter Markus, Laura van den Berg, Dawn Raffel, and Jeff Parker. All Dzanc authors not only receive contracts and monetary compensation commensurate with the best literary houses, but the personal attention shown to each author by Dzanc - including reviews, book tours and intimate involvement in every step of the publishing process - clearly makes Dzanc unique.

2012 Collagist Chapbook Contest Winner: THE RUSTED CITY by Rochelle Hurt

DateWednesday, August 15, 2012 at 9:00PM

The Collagist is proud to announce that The Rusted City by Rochelle Hurt has been selected as the winner of our 2012 Chapbook Contest. The Rusted City will be published in print and eBook forms later this year, as the second release of the The Collagist Chapbook Series. 

We received several hundred submissions this year, and as with our last contest, I found the process of choosing just one incredibly difficult. The chapbook contest has consistently provided some of the most exciting submission piles I've ever had the privilege to read through, and I sincerely wish all of our entrants best of luck in finding another publisher for their work.

Thank you again to everyone who entered, and congratulations again to Rochelle, and to all our finalists listed below.
