What is OFP looking for?
Old Fort Press publishes original works of fiction that have not been previously released. We accept all fiction but are particularly interested in historical, family sagas, and semi-clean romance (closed door only).
In addition to your writing, we seek authors with a unique voice and strong character. We value team players who are open to collaboration and willing to ask for help when needed.
