| Essence Press
Essence Press publishes island, a bi-annual literary magazine providing a distinctive space for new writing inspired by nature and exploring our place within the natural world. No further issues of island will be published in the near future. Please do not send work. It also publishes small hand-bound poem booklet-type items and poetry postcards, bookmarks and cards with a particular interest in taking just one poem by a poet and creating a mini-publication around it. |
