““I think it’s crucial for women like us to prove that small fiction presses are viable. More than any criticism about our fandom and fan fiction ties, it’s been the criticism that accuses us of not being a ‘real’ press that fires me up and makes me work harder than ever. Publishing is so stagnant right now, so consolidated – I think we need smaller venues and unexpected voices like a blood transfusion. And that’s an attitude, a mission I guess, that comes out of my entire lifetime spent needing fandom to give me stories that the mainstream couldn’t or wouldn’t.””
– Alexandra Edwards of Big Bang Press, in an interview with The New Statesman. (via bigbangpress)
