Howling Bird Press is the publishing house of Augsburg College\u2019s MFA in Creative Writing. We offer an annual book contest in alternating genres: poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. The contest is open to emerging and established authors, and receives submissions from across the country. Each year, the winner is awarded a $2,500 cash prize along with book publication in the fall, including distribution by Itasca Books. The author is also invited to speak at our program’s summer residency in July.<\/p>\n
Howling Bird Press is staffed by a Publisher and Publishing mentor and a rotating roster of students enrolled in the Publishing Concentration of our MFA program, a two semester sequence of ENL 527: Publishing I in the fall and ENL 528 Publishing II in the spring. Led by a professor with many years of experience in literary publishing, the students handle all the work of maintaining a press, including acquisitions, editing, graphic design, production, marketing, and distribution. The Publishing Concentration is open for enrollment to Augsburg MFA students in all genres: fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, screenwriting, and playwriting. It is also open to writers who have completed MFA Programs or equivalent graduate study at Augsburg or other institutions.<\/p>\n
