Pilot Press is the solo-run, DIY imprint of artist Richard Porter. Started in 2017 as a gesture of communality against the darkness, the press is inspired by the collaborative spirit of the gay liberation movement and the radical, subversive history of artists' publishing. Its interests lie with queer, transgressive texts written at the thresholds of human experience, with a strong focus on poetry and experimental writing.

The press receives no external funding or institutional support, nor does it have a publicist. It works with a distributor, Public Knowledge Books, who are able to supply independent bookshops in the U.K. and around the world - a central mission of the press to extend the reach of its authors. For bookseller enquiries about stocking the press's titles, please write to them at sales@publicknowledgebooks.com.

For anything else, including website orders and requests for review copies, please write to pilotpresslondon@gmail.com. Please note that as a team of one, managing the daily running of the press with other work, it may not be possible to respond to every message received.
