Willow Springs Books

Willow Springs Books is a literary press housed in Eastern Washington University’s Inland Northwest Center for Writers in Spokane, Washington. Under the direction of poet Christopher Howell, students have the opportunity to engage with all aspects of the publishing process, including reading manuscripts, design, marketing, and editing. Willow Springs Books cares deeply about the literary community and building relationships with other small presses, as well as collaborating with local bookstores and regional universities.

​

Each year, we publish one collection of short fiction, selected from our Spokane Short Fiction Prize, as well as a poetry chapbook in the American Surrealist tradition under the auspices of the ACME Poetry Series.
