Guest Editors

In April 2018, V. Press would like to hear from writers and editors interested in potentially being a guest editor for V. Press.

We envisage guest editors choosing their favourite submission and seeing this through the editing stage of preparing the manuscript for publication. Editorial support and advice would be offered but the manuscript choice and editing would be in the guest editor’s hands.

Unfortunately, this is not a paid role, as V. Press is not currently a wage-paying or staffed company. However, we hope the role would offer valuable experience and training, as well as the pleasure of bringing a new V. Press title into existence.

Ideally, guest editors would have some previous editorial experience at some level and at least one published pamphlet of their own.

V. Press do not currently publish authors based outside of the U.K. because of the distribution issues with selling titles overseas. However, guest editors could be based overseas as long as they’re readily available through email. And we would welcome the different perspective and diversity that input from an internationally based editor might bring.

Expressions of interest in the role, with an outline of past experience, email and postal address, and what the editor feels they could bring to the role should be no longer than 2 sides of A4 and emailed to Sarah Leavesley at vpresspoetryAThotmailDOTcom.
