Introducing the Howling Dog megasite: radical writing, art, poetry by iconoclastic visionaries. These dogs never learned to fetch or lay down. Get dangerous, get discovered ... |
HOWLING DOG PRESS
P.O. Box 853, Berthoud, COLORADO, USA 80513-0853

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (to post and/or insert in newspaper; 800 words): Aprilâ€â€Sept., 2003
DISCOVER THE MOST DANGEROUS WRITERS ALIVE ! Get Dangerous, Get Discovered: CHALLENGING OPPORTUNITIES FOR WRITERS, POETS, SCREENWRITERS, PLAYWRIGHTS, JOURNALISTS, ARTISTS
As freedom of the press and freedom of creative expression in literature, journalism, and the arts, along with other freedoms guaranteed by the Bill of Rights, are once again being jeopardized, atrophied, and eroded by a government administration that apparently holds the will of the people in contempt, Howling Dog Press sounds the call to writers, poets, dramatists, satirists, and journalists to “bear arms†against this potential suppression of our right to free expression, independent of state imposed or sanctioned dogma. A call for manuscripts is now issued. Through the dynamic vision of the non-banal wordsmith, published manuscripts will reflect vital and original alternative viewpoints to mainline acquiescent propaganda, while exhibiting the finest writing skills and techniques.
Howling Dog Press is a proactive publisher. Howling Dog Press opens new venues for the publication of, among other quality writing, anti-war and anti-tyranny literary works, and visual art. An unintimidated, often defiant, literary legacy is absolutely essential to world peace and harmony, the elevation of human dignity, the coalescence of human spirit, and the preservation of the rights of Man and manifest liberty. Those works intelligent and courageous enough to confront head-on the important issues of our own time, whether socially, culturally, or politically, are necessary acts of civil disobedience to demonstrate to the present powers-that-be, and to future generations of the powerful and powerless, the resolve and conviction of we who presently have been given the responsibility of making Earth a safe and habitable planet. To remain silent is to encourage the TRUE AXIS OF EVIL: greed, deception, & tyranny in every form.
Howling Dog Press provides publishing opportunities for work that demonstrates we were not all asleep when the enemies of peace, liberty, justice, compassion, and the global biosphere were so busy in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Since 1981, Howling Dog Press has supported work that expresses originality and uniqueness in a non-compromised manner. Howling Dog Press champions works of passion and power, substance and meaning, intellect and courage, while not disparaging work because it is “politically or socially incorrectâ€Ââ€â€particularly that work running counter to the dead-thought of old, hard-line power politics and global corporate machinery. Rather than literature that shamelessly reinforces its soulless grip on what is generously, but erroneously termed â€Âart,†you will discover the most dangerous writers alive at Howling Dog Press.
In this age of polarization, including extreme riches for the few and destitute poverty for the many, if you as a writer or artist are concerned with being tagged radicalâ€â€or any other handy and rote stigmatic label intended to suppress dissent and preserve tyrannyâ€â€you should not submit work. But for others, worthy of the descriptions “poet†or “artist,†who understand the honored legacy of those who risked all to bring forth positive changes against corruption, look to Howling Dog Press to have your say. To create that which is essential, alive, and life affirming is more than a high calling: It is a commission beckoning writers and artists of this “BRAVE NEW WORLD ORDER†to defy the juggernaut of tyranny & produce earth-shaking poetry, prose, and art that just might last 500 years.
Howling Dog Press features some of the strongest, most dangerous writing on the web and in print. We admire literary genius, seeking those who are capable of revolutionizing literary culture. Likewise, we are determined to see corruption exposed and ecological outrages stopped. International and timeless, many of the authors and artists already represented have achieved accolades, honors, and awards of the highest merit. Therefore, we confidently invite you to send your manuscripts to the BRAVE NEW WORLD ORDER Publishing Awards. Use our guidelines at www.howlingdogpress.com, submitting manuscripts by the deadlines given in each category: POETRY, NOVELS & NOVELLAS, SHORT FICTION, CREATIVE NON-FICTION, DRAMATIC WORKS, and OMEGA Online Journal of Literary Arts (see separate guidelines online for this venue). Prizes and awards are significant, as is being published by Howling Dog Pressâ€â€an alternative, independent publisher with a long and respected legacy.
â€â€HOWLING DOG PRESS IS NOT A VANITY OR SUBSIDY PRESS.

Michael,
Are your deeply held, yet whacked out, political views the result of school children making fun of your last name? I must have been terribly difficult growing up?
I feel sorry for you.

Dan,
Don't blow a gasket bud. It's not good for your heart. Take a deep breath and read the man's article again. You tell me if it makes any coherent sense whatsoever. BTW, it must have been very difficult growing up with the last name: Annis.
That was his given name and it could not be helped. People, however, refer to you in the same fashion. That's an insult and will not be tolerated on this site.

Mr. Annis,
Hey if these writers are so dangerous, than why do they need to be discovered?
Just Curious,
