Is there any known example of a successful &/or interesting press, with the poss. exception of univ. imprints, which has raised funds first then appointed I assume some kind of committee who then appoint an editor who then looks round for something to publish? Even the now Big Names didn't start that way, and for a good reason: the publishing of anything but particularly poetry is as much an individual thing as the writing of it. In other words I'm as willing as I've ever been to subscribe to a proposed publication but not without knowing what's proposed & by whom. Anybody now starting up, though, should take Peter's observations on board ... or have a go at poetry bookselling ... just for a trial period ...
