ABOUT
A collectively run literary house for writers too often pushed to the margins, and the people, principles, and promises that hold it together.
OUR MISSION
Publish and circulate work from writers who are usually pushed to the margins.
Give authors real say in what gets published and how people are treated.
Build a staff backbone and governing structure that keep the whole system functional, accountable, and sustainable.
OUR VISION
Stewardship over extraction
Nomadic exists to help bring work into the world and keep it alive.
Clarity over jargon
Policies are written in plain, understandable language rather than legal or institutional jargon.
Collective voice
Authors have meaningful influence over editorial direction, culture, and key policy.
Transparency over opacity
The collective should know how decisions, timelines, and money flow.
Care with accountability
Conflict is addressed directly and fairly, with a bias toward repair.
Living structure
This house can and should change as the press grows and learns.
