Welcome to #SmallPitch, the big pitch event for small presses!
#SmallPitch is the first pitch event to focus on small presses. The goal is to help authors (previously published or not) find a home for their work and to promote small presses as an important actor of the publishing industry.
Small presses are traditional publishers that don’t belong to any of the “Big 5” or midsize publishers and usually work with much smaller teams and budgets. They often bring overlooked voices to the market and offer an alternative to authors who wish to publish traditionally but don’t want an agent or prefer to work with smaller publishers. Many small presses are also known to accept unagented submissions and works difficult to place with big publishers such as novellas, short story collections, or poetry.
Next Event: July 13-19, 2026
