Counterbound.
Counterbound is a platform for writers and artists. We publish essay, poetry, and visual art in our print issues, sold at www.counterbound.org.
We also host writing from our editors here on Substack, which focuses on local and regional topics.
In a monopolized media landscape, independent writing and art is increasingly essential. Consider supporting our work by buying Counterbound books, subscribing to our editor’s Substack, or donating to support independent media.
When you subscribe, you support writing from Theo and Sam. We will make Subscriber only posts and access to the work we are doing with, and outside or, the Counterbound collective.
We have so many great books, designed and curated by Trevor Warren.
Making books and writing essays is expensive. You can help support the work through a direct donation.
Work with us.
Counterbound platforms work from writers and artists in the Northwest, mainly. We focus primarily on local historical, environmental, and political issues, but are also interested in work that cannot fit into a particular genre or mold.
We also want to platform artists and writers historically underrepresented in the region and in local media.
