Our pledge is to publish books that will bring readers a lift, some laughter and a love for each other. We pledge also to publish books of substance, books that expose injustice, that defend the weak and the dispossessed and that celebrate the qualities that Isaac Westmoreland embodied - courage, perseverance, hard work and justice.

IWP seeks works from promising writers of all colors and creeds.
