LOONFEATHER PRESS is a not-for-profit small press located in Bemidji, Minnesota. It was founded in 1979 to establish a regional literary journal that would include good writing by both emerging and established authors. In 1988 the press began adding longer works to its publications, including original paperbacks, limited editions, chapbooks, and a collection of letterpress broadsides. Many of our titles have been the author’s first published book. We have won a Minnesota Book Award and had three nominations. Two recent books, "The Rhubarb King" in 2007 and "Breaking the Glass" in 2009, were finalists in the Midwest Independent Publishers Association book awards.
