Civil Coping Mechanisms (CCM) is a DIY kind of press. Why not do it our way? Innovative fiction crossing any and all boundaries to share its vision. Innovative community of similar-minded artisans and auteurs. What only matters: offering a space for the innovation and experimentation so sorely shamed and disregarded as unmarketable by the major and indie presses too busy selling the next celebrity memoir, paper-thin creative nonfiction spine of lies, the wax-intellectual pursuits of yet-again the same vision wrapped in newer trim, or the same regurgitated genre-fiction and prose you'd expect would have become stale by now. No wonder the publishing industry flounders while other entertainment industries report record numbers and new-inventions. The printed word need not slacken at a time when what's read is more likely plastered to the digital page. Oh yes, we rant. This is our place. We'll do as we damn well please. This press is a place for coping with the contemporary ennui of the modern literary artist. You need not fret. Your work shall stretch out its wings and flutter as far as its desire.FICTION: We're looking for work so conceptually or aesthetically innovative it simply can't be published anywhere else, fully embracing the surreal, the avant-garde, the postmodern. Work in alternative genres is encouraged. We want literary objects infused with "otherness": so new, so different, that they renovate our notion of what literature can be.
