Poetry happens here...
Baseline Press is a Canadian poetry micro-press. Since 2011, we have been creating limited edition, hand-sewn chapbooks for both new and established poets.
Baseline’s upcoming roster features poetry by Roxanna Bennett & Kevin Andrew Heslop (co-authors), Paula Turcotte, Lisa Baird, Lauren Peat, and Jeremy Luke Hill.
Baseline works with a rotating list of manuscript editors. Recent editors include Jessica Hiemstra, Annick MacAskill, Cassidy McFadzean, Sandra Ridley, Moez Surani, Jeanann Verlee, and Phoebe Wang.
We will be open for submissions from Canadian poets throughout 2024. Please send 12 to 20 pages of poetry and a bio in one Word attachment to baselinepress at gmail.com. An email acknowledging receipt of your manuscript will be sent within two days. We aim to reply to submissions within three or four months.
Baseline Press operates out of what is colonially known as London, Ontario, which is the ancestral, traditional and unceded homeland of the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee, and the Leni-Lunaape peoples. We are grateful to live and work here.
We would also like to acknowledge the generous funding provided by the London Arts Council through the City of London's Community Arts Investment Program. Baseline could not do what it does without this support.
