Welcome To Spider Road Press!

If you're looking for a small press specializing in writing by and/or about strong, female-identifying folks, you've found it! We love to publish unique novellas and collections of short fiction and poetry featuring complex, female-identifying characters. We think our bookshelves should look more like the diverse world around us. We believe that all brave, intelligent writing is literary, no matter what the subject matter. We love to stretch our imaginations. Take a look around. Discover the writers, books, and submission opportunities that keep our creative family thriving.

WHAT READERS SAY

Readers just like you comment on our books.
This collection of writing is surprising and fresh…the short pieces are by turns hilarious and thought-provoking. There are several writers whose work I will be looking into further after this introduction. Highly recommend it!

Bestselling Author of "Skeletons in the Attic"

Each story is evocative and powerful, and the author’s writing style is seductively smooth, crystalline and endlessly enchanting.
