Publishing Philosophy
Instead of holding contests or having regular submission periods, Belladonna* promotes feminist literary community among those with a shared (and ever-evolving) poetics. For the most part Belldonna* develops its reading series and publication list through affiliation and invitation. In this manner the collective expands as new poets join its conversations, often volunteering to help with projects. Anyone who feels aligned with what Belladonna* is doing can participate, volunteer and contribute. Writers who are published by Belladonna often participate in the process of publishing their work and the work of others, and then become involved in the collective.

Famous quotes containing the words publishing and/or philosophy:
“While you continue to grow fatter and richer publishing your nauseating confectionery, I shall become a mole, digging here, rooting there, stirring up the whole rotten mess where life is hard, raw and ugly.”
—Norman Reilly Raine (1895–1971)
“A life-worshipper’s philosophy is comprehensive.... He is at one moment a positivist and at another a mystic: now haunted by the thought of death ... and now a Dionysian child of nature; now a pessimist and now, with a change of lover or liver or even the weather, an exuberant believer that God’s in his heaven and all’s right with the world.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
