Publishing North West

Flapjack Press aims to "provide a voice and forum for stranded bards" whilst not discriminating between the written and the spoken word. It explores the synergy between both through its magazine The Ugly Tree and occasional single-poet collections.

It currently publishes two magazines - The Ugly Tree and Ballista - as well as three or four books a year. 

Each magazine includes work from Northwest writers alongside national and international contributions, whilst single author publications focus solely on the best new writing from the Northwest.

The Ugly Tree (ed. Paul Neads, ISSN 1478 8349) features poetry, reviews and interviews, and the poetry is of no set theme or genre. It is published every February, June and October.

Ballista (ed.s Paul Neads & Andrew Myers, ISSN 1750-6646) is a short fiction magazine showcasing new speculative fiction, published every March & September.
