It’s true: we are again open for submissions. The basics: any genre, up to ten pages of prose or ten poems (not to exceed ten pages, no funny stuff), sent by post to PO Box 911, Buffalo, NY 14207, accompanied by a cover letter, brief biography (including recent readings, panels, press fairs, etc.), and SASE (for response only; manuscripts will not be returned). (Also include a brief summary of the larger work if you are sending an excerpt.)

The details: Submissions must be postmarked November 2011 and received by the end of the year (no idea why it would take that long to get to us; just saying). While we will solicit the balance of the manuscript and/or work with you to build one if your work is selected, we are also interested in producing small books from the submissions we receive, so please consider sending a sampling that could stand alone (especially short stories, poems, and short nonfiction). Finally, for logistical reasons, we regret that we are only considering work from U.S.-based authors.

19 November 2008
We would like to thank Alexander Parsons (author of Thunderbird) for mentioning us in his interview (by Andrew Scott, author of Modern Love) that appeared in the most recent Glimmer Train.

And Front&Centre just published a rather flattering review of our previous fiction title, Modern Love by Andrew Scott. A snippet from the review: "
Andrew Scott's Modern Love is the type of short story that I like—it is spare, succint, has great pace and dialogue, yet the story's undercurrent (that which is not written but is there nonetheless) makes this short fiction feel more like a novel."

18 October 2007
Today we released The Sea Never Drowns by Ontario writer Jason Heroux. It's a collection of surreal humanist poetry that is both delightfully quirky and grounded in the reality of daily life, and also features cover art by San Diego artist Doni Conner and felt papers.

The Hippo has published a very nice review of Teaching Metaphors, giving it an "A" rating. Among the more savory nuggets: "It's a powerful book, as fine a collection of working-class poetry as anything Carl Sandburg's 'Big Shoulders' could have concocted has Sandburg been a teacher."

05 April 2007
There's exciting news at sunnyoutside: after acquiring a Craftsmen Superior a few months ago, the rollers for the press have finally arrived and we've run off a couple editions that are part of our evolving postcard project. In worlds-colliding excitment, we're also on the verge of releasing our next title—Rumble Strip by Jason Tandon. Since one of the poems from his book is also one of the postcards in the forthcoming project, we'll send a copy of the letterpress-printed postcard broadsheet to everyone who signs up to our mailing list in the month of April (with the ever-so-wee catch that there's an advertisement for the book on the reverse side). (If you really want one without the advertisement on the back, you can order one here.)

12 March 2007
The Winter 2007 issue of Blind Man's Rainbow came in and we were flattered to rece
ive 2½ mentions. Sherosky writes of Dream Big, Work Harder by Rebecca Schumejda: "Schumejda makes the beauty of common situations tangible. Worth the $10 and then some." Of Rumors of Electricity by Richard Krech she writes: "...the poems inside are certainly something new for those of us who read poetry regularly. The collection has a fresh feel for that reason, complimenting its classy layout." And the ½ goes to the review of Other Investigations, which sunnyoutside publisher David McNamara was involved with.

05 March 2007
Červená Barva Press has ran an interview with sunnyoutside publisher David McNamara in their March newsletter. Also, Rebecca Schumejda's reading of selected work from Dream Big, Work Harder at the NYC Small Press Fair has been posted online; click here for the link to the video.

23 February 2007
We're quite flattered to have another title be a featured pick by Small Press Review
—this time Rumors of Electricity by Richard Krech in the January-February 2007 issue. Also, Free Verse ran a thorough and interesting review of Feeding My Heart to the Wind by Michael Kriesel in which students of Lakeland College examined the book. Filled with praise, the last line of the review best sums up the tone: "Kriesel says what we have always wanted to say, but never quite could." Finally, a few new readings have been added to the calendar.

11 February 2007
A couple items in the papers
—Richard Krech's reading on Monday in the Berkeley Daily Planet and the celebration of Somerville small presses on 2/19 in the Somerville Journal.

22 January 2007
The first two reviews of Richard Krech's Rumors of Electricity are in. The first, by Hugh Fox and published on Doug Holder's Boston Area Small Press and Poetry Scene, says that "Here in Rumors of Electricity [Krech] is the perfect guide into cultures and worlds that have been totally distorted by recent political events." The other review is by Christopher Harter and appears in the current issue of Bathtub Gin. His reviews closes: "In reviewing a book, I try to balance praise and suggestions for improvement. With Krech's Rumors, I am hard-pressed to do the latter and simply say this is a book to definitely add to your collection." The book has also been listed as one of three "Best New Poetry Collections by Lawyers in 2006" by James R. Elkins.

14 January 2007
Rebecca Schumejda's Dream Big, Work Harder is finally available through Amazon.com (and we've also put up a direct link to order it from Powell's).

Ries's review of So Much Is Burning by William Taylor Jr. (and FireWeed ran the full version).

The Nineteenth Annual Small Press Fair in New York City was a roaring time—we met a lot of great people and Rebecca Schumejda's reading was a great success. In fact, ForeWord editor at large Eugene Schwartz liked it so much that he bought a copy of Dream Big, Work Harder. Imagine our delight when their December 6 ForeWord This Week newsletter came out and he named it an editor's pick, writing: "This short book of striking poetry by a Kingston, NY area poet, uses words as they were intended to be used, combined in such a way as to create pictures of life and work and relationship that we can recognize—and yet so original and direct that you will turn the pages eagerly curious about the next."

Pittsburgh was a good time. We'd like to thank Unicorn Mountain for putting on Tomb of the Spy Magicians. It was a good first showing and we look forward to seeing them grow.

So Much Is Burning has been listed in "New & Noteworthy Books" by NewPages.com. The review/interview Charles P. Ries wrote on the book has also been picked up a few additional places—in Barking Dogs #2 and forthcoming in 5_Trope and poeticdiversity. Iconoclast #93 also mentioned William Taylor Jr., but this time the mini-chap As the Days and Hours Pass, calling it "an imaginatively presented trio of poems." They also list Jason Heroux's The Morning Light and comments that "[sunnyoutside's] work seen thus far is reader-friendly and approachable."

21 August 2006
A quick thank you to a few newspapers for finding space in their pages to mention us: The Journal & Courier of Indiana for running a piece on Ed Herrera, who did the artwork for Modern Love (try our .pdf if the link no longer works); The Wausau Daily Herald for mentioning the release of Feeding My Heart to the Wind by Michael Kriesel; and The Somerville News for printing Doug Holder's review of Feeding My Heart to the Wind.

In addition to City Lights in San Francisco, Porter Square Books in Cambridge, Massachusetts and The Elliott Bay Book Company in Seattle, Washington now also carries some of our titles. We graciously add them to the list of independent booksellers whom we are proud to have our books sold by.

Word Riot recently published an interview with Charles Nevsimal of Centennial Press by Charles P. Ries. The interview is worth the read on its own merit, but of our particular interest is that Nevsimal, who is quite the publisher himself, said this about three of our writers: "I'll say, without a doubt, three of the best voices in the vast world of small press poetry are William Taylor Jr., justin.barrett, and John Sweet." That's nice and all, but try this one out: "Nathan Graziano is another who's really come into his own. His book, Honey, I'm Home, is one of the best chapbooks I've ever read." Thanks to Charles for the kind words, and the other Charles for such a good interview.

10 February 2006
Alexander Parson's interview at the University of New Hampshire's Authors' Series has been edited and broadcast on New Hampshire Public Television's NH Outlook. You can view the show online here.

10 January 2006
A short while ago we received our Autumn 2005 issue of The Blind Man's Rainbow, who had some mighty nice stuff to say about us. And we quote: "Indeed, I recently got a letter with a huge pack of stuff—chapbooks, individual illustrated poems, and more. All of it is fantastically done. It is some of the best stuff coming out of the small press right now." Color us flattered. (We will post excerpts from the reviews that follow throughout the rest of the month.)

04 January 2006
Select sunnyoutside titles are now being carried by Powell's, the legendary independent bookstore based in Portland, Oregon. Currently available from them are Thunderbird by Alexander Parsons and Honey, I'm Home and "A Paper Ark" by Nathan Graziano.

08 October 2005
The Midwesterner has published a long interview with Michael Kriesel, and somewhere in there—Part Six, I think it is—the broadside of his poetry and Claudio Parentela's work that we published is mentioned. (It's still available in the catalogue.) (Since Part Three doesn't seem to link to Part Four, you can find Parts Four and on here.)
