Publishing

Lakeshore Literary Foundation engages in literary publishing as part of our mission. Consistent with our not-for-profit status, the selection of titles we accept leans toward material of outstanding literary beauty.

Long-Form Titles

We publish under three imprints:

  • Lakeshore Verse — Poetry collections, ranging from chapbooks to full collections.
  • Lakeshore Prose — Novels and related non-poetry works.
  • Lakeshore Technical — Non-fiction books.

Periodicals

We publish two periodicals:

  • The Lakeshore Review — TLR transferred in late December 2023 from Lakeshore Literary, Inc., to the Lakeshore Literary Foundation, as part of the stand-alone publishing company’s wind-down plan. However, the transition was not a smooth one. The journal will reboot with a new reading window in the summer of 2024. Submissions are managed exclusively through Submittable; links will be provided when the reboot is ready to launch.
  • Surface Reflections — This anthology is geared toward genre fiction, rather than literary fiction. It’s managed through Submittable and is open periodically. A link will be posted for the next reading window.
