Santa Fe Writers Project


The Santa Fe Writers Project is an American independent press. Founded in 1998 by Andrew [Nash Gifford|Andrew Gifford], it began as a small effort supported by writers and arts advocates. Today, Gifford continues to direct the press. SFWP hosts a literary awards program 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]. The earliest titles were funded personally by Gifford's savings, often resulting in a loss.
With over 60 titles in print, the press publishes around four to six titles a year.
