Santa Fe Writers Project

The Santa Fe Writers Project (SFWP) was founded in 1998 by Andrew Gifford. It began as a small effort supported by writers and arts advocates, and has since grown into a well-known independent press. SFWP hosts a literary awards program which has been judged by Deesha Philyaw, and an online journal.

In addition to publishing literary fiction, and creative non-fiction, the press also reprints out-of-print books of literary merit or social value.

While the press is largely operated from Bethesda, Maryland it was founded in Santa Fe, New Mexico where Gifford has family. The earliest titles were funded personally by Gifford's savings, often resulting in a loss. Provided by Wikipedia
