Train Wreck XPress (TWXP) was established in 2014 to publish quality novels, poetry, memoir, and stories, particularly by those not served well (or even noticed) by mainstream presses. These creative minds seeking a place for their work to call home include people of color, the incarcerated, LGBTQ folk, and those in lower socio-economic brackets.

As a traditional small press that pays all costs of publication, TWXP issues regular royalties to authors based upon sales. We want to ensure that each author understands the publication process and has choices and input so everything about the book is of the highest quality. TWXP strives to issue only the very finest of titles.

TWXP is served by a variety of excellent indie editors, including Kay Grey, Zee Ahmad, Lori L. Lake, and eagle eye Claudia Kuzie. The eye-catching covers, logos, and other art we use are created by Lorelei or by Sheri at Hindsight Graphics, unless otherwise noted.

We use Stan Drew's company, Golden Images, LLC, for all of our scanning needs and highly recommend them.

TWXP is not currently accepting submissions, but we will take on projects from aspiring writers again in the future. Keep a close eye on the Submissions Page to find out when that happens.

TWXP REQUIRES FAIRNESS, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION

Diverse, multi-racial, multi-age, and differently-able writers deserve unbiased treatment and inclusion in our society and in all of the fine arts. Train Wreck XPress welcomes submissions from writers of every color, ability, age, culture, background, and more. Books featuring characters who are "diverse" (which reflects the Real World) are always welcome. We believe that *all* good writing by, for, and/or about people of every kind is very much needed in the world today.
