- From “A Prayer” by Steve Turtell – Collective Brightness: LGBTIQ Poets on Faith, Religion & Spirituality

Sibling Rivalry Press is a small publishing house based just outside of Little Rock, Arkansas. We survive the red-state-getting-redder blues by reading Walt Whitman, Allen Ginsberg, Sylvia Plath, Gavin Dillard, and Antler. We learned the secret of life by memorizing Vytautas Pliura and Dennis Cooper. We realized we weren’t alone when Harold Norse whispered sweet verse in our ears. Simply put, brave souls who weren’t afraid to bleed their souls onto the page saved our lives. Now it’s time for us to give back.

The mission of Sibling Rivalry Press is to develop, promote, and market underground artistic talent – those who don’t quite fit into the mainstream. Our vision? To create literary and poetic rock stars. For more on the folks we publish, click here.
