Postbox is the magazine of Postbox Press, the literary fiction imprint of Red Squirrel Press publishing short story pamphlets and collections, novellas and novels.

 

Writer and musician Colin Will is Editor of both Postbox and Postbox Press.

‘I believe the short story is an endangered form and not published often enough. The degree to which short stories are read varies from country to country but they aren’t read sufficiently anywhere. One or two small presses are doing their best to attempt to ‘save the short story’ but more is needed. I’ve long held an ambition to begin a biannual international short story magazine and decided that as soon as I settled in my new home in Scotland, I would do so. I asked Colin Will if he would be willing to be Editor and to my delight, he agreed. My favourite short story writers include David Almond, Raymond Carver, Chekhov, Julia Darling, Don DeLillo, Junot Diaz, Helen Dunmore, Bernard McLaverty and Katherine Mansfield.’
