FATHOMBOOKS is a micropress interested in Neo-Gnostic writing and image.

The FATHOMSCHOOL teaches and immerses in this style through workshops, with topics like 'Limpidity & Flux,' 'Writing the Body,' and 'Learning from Women.'

Neo-Gnostic texts are fit to meet——or be——the Gorgon. As Antigone to Ismene: Your wisdom appealed to one world——mine, another. As Ishamael Reed: i left some curses in d cash / box so youll know its me.

FATHOMBOOKS publishes standalone volumes of Neo-Gnostic writing and the SHARKPACK Occasional, collecting several authors we admire. 

We accept about 1% of all submissions we review for publication——mostly because submitters aren't sending work that aligns with our interests. Take note, please: verse published and celebrated by the 'well-regarded' magazines would rarely receive a second glance from us. Please look over our library, purchase a book, or review previous online issues of the SHARKPACK Occasional before paying the fee to submit. 

The Occasional will accept submissions through July,2025.

All love to you in yr pursuits, khed.
