About Us

Frayed Edge Press is a small independent publishing house based in Philadelphia. We publish literary fiction and poetry, as well as
non-fiction titles in history and political science. We also publish the Street Smart Series of Short Fiction, consisting of contemporary, urban-set novelette-length works. Translated works in any of these categories are also considered if rights are in-hand. We especially welcome marginalized voices, both historical and contemporary, including women, people of color, ethnic and religious minorities, the LGBTQ+ community, and progressive political viewpoints. We particularly seek to publish works that wrestle with important questions challenging contemporary society, including political and environmental concerns, civil rights, women's rights, and sustainability. 

Our Philosophy of Publishing

Frayed Edge Press is a collaborative publisher, working cooperatively with our authors to share both the risks and rewards of publication. We are not a traditional publisher nor are we a self-publisher or vanity press. All works published by our press are vetted by our editorial staff and subjected to developmental editing when necessary; final drafts receive professional editing, proofing, and production services. Our authors work collaboratively with us to create and market high-quality, engaging, and readable works. For more information, see our FAQs.
