Can I purchase a hardcover copy of Porchlight?

We are currently considering the creation of a hardbound edition containing issues of Porchlight.

Do you read every submission?

Yes. We read every single one.

Pretty good. We do not take previous publishing history into account when we make our decisions. We simply choose pieces that we love.
