“Gold Wake is such a cool collective. The design of my novel was stunning—the team went above and beyond and translated a refrain from the final page of the book into Gaelic for the chapter break pages, and created a Celtic Tree of Life for the first page, both to honor the book’s roots in Ireland, and they let me make a wild cover with a graphic artist friend of mine. The editorial collaboration was also delightful, where I received insightful suggestions that helped me write the weird little book I wanted to write.” -Erin Stalcup, author of Keen
“In publishing my first collection of poetry, A Stranger’s Heart, Gold Wake provided an extraordinary experience. The editors, Kyle McCord and Paul Brooke, gave so much more than discerning textual review. They gave of themselves in guidance, responsiveness, time, skill, experience, and friendship. Far from the concrete canyons of publishing, Gold Wake offered warmth and community as my literary home.” -Phillip Cozzi, author of A Stranger’s Heart
“Aerialist is a gorgeous book— the cover designer worked closely with me using my choice of artwork and was responsive to my input. Kyle McCord ably assisted with the internal design and ushered the book to completion. What I am most grateful to Gold Wake for is that my book remains in print and I can order additional author copies nearly a decade after it was first published. I have since had four more full-length books come out and hope that their publishers will prove to be as steady and supportive as Gold Wake. “
–Mary Buchinger, author of The Book of Shores
