The Orchard Street Press (TOSP) was established in 2016 to provide an alternative publishing opportunity for writers whose work deserves an audience beyond readers of the small press reviews and journals. From the start, TOSP has worked closely with its writers to produce books that appeal to the heart, the mind, and the eye. The Orchard Street Press does not usually consider unsolicited manuscripts. We typically invite selected poets who have entered the annual Poetry Contest to submit manuscripts for review. If you have a poetry collection or other manuscript that you would like TOSP to consider, please query first (orchard721@gmail.com).
In 2017, TOSP conducted a national Chapbook Contest that produced Orchard Street’s first five published collections. In 2018, The Press switched to an annual Poetry Contest that considered individual poems. Prize winners and other select entrants were then invited to submit chapbook manuscripts for possible publication. That Contest yielded the next set of chapbooks and the first edition of Quiet Diamonds, Orchard Street’s annual poetry journal. Since 2017, we have published about 90 titles and nine editions of Quiet Diamonds.
