History

Forest Avenue Press publishes literary fiction on a joyride (and the occasional memoir). Our titles are distributed to the trade by Publishers Group West.

Since its 2012 founding, Forest Avenue has become known for publishing books that surprise and delight readers. We've chosen to incorporate hope and whimsy and possibility into our catalog, seeing joy as a necessary balance to the hardships of living. Reedsy named Forest Avenue a best independent press for 2022. Literary Arts honored us with two publishing fellowships. Our authors have earned prestigious awards and praise from top newspapers and trade journals, including The Washington Post, Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, Foreword Reviews, and The Oregonian.

On the editorial side, we prioritize BIPOC, queer, and neurodivergent voices. We prize novels that are beautifully crafted and are spun into being via the author's lived experience. Many of our titles blend genres in playful, unexpected ways.
