About

Almost Perfect Press is a micro-publisher specializing in hand-bound, small-batch publications featuring emerging writers and artists, and other short texts. My business model is anti-capitalist and community-driven. I aim to present books as neither content not commodity, but as handmade objects created with mindful intention and care. All of my books are entirely hand-bound. From sewing to trimming, I don’t use any industrial machinery or processes. 

 

There are no curatorial restrictions on what I publish. I’m interested in works of poetry, prose, comics, drawing, photography, and works that play with (and beyond) these genres. I hope that by allowing emerging artists and writers the platform to take risks and publish experimental works, together we can re-imagine what the book form can contain. 

 

The signature book from Almost Perfect is an 8.5 x 5.25 in. chapbook, with about 40 pages, colored endpapers and a kraft cover. However, I am also interested in custom projects. Please let me know if you are interested in working together, whether you have a chapbook-length work or something else in mind.
