Editorial Focus
Bywater Books, Inc. represents the coming of age of queer literature.
The Bywater Books mission is to publish well-written commercial literature primarily targeted at lesbian, sapphic, and wlw readers—this includes trans women.
The Amble Press mission is to publish fiction and narrative nonfiction by queer writers of diverse identities within the LGBTQ+ community, with a primary, though not exclusive, focus on queer writers of color.
At Bywtare Books and Amble Press, everyone is a story.
