                              Ye who seek horror, fear, and dread--
                              Ye who mouldy grimoires oft have read--
                              Ye who in dim-lit chambers tread--
                              Your darkling quest here ends.
                              For on these pages, all the lore
                              Of Nightmare and Madness is in store....
                              If ye be brave, then come explore
                              Dark River Press, my friends....

                              Dark River Press won the Preditors and Editors Reader's Poll Award for Best Non-Fiction Zine. We won 2nd place in the Best Poetry Zine category and 3rd in the Best Fiction Zine category.

                              Also, D.L Myers won 2nd place in the Best Poem category for Vul Ravin, published by Dark River Press. Read it here.

                              Considering we've only been live since Autumn 2011, I think that's an outstanding achievement!

                              I would like to take this opportunity to thank every member of the team for helping to make all this possible. You guys are awesome!! 

                              I would also like to thank the writers, poets, artists, musicians who fill this site up with such beautiful darkness! Without you, Dark River Press wouldn't exist!

                              Finally, I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who visits Dark River Press and to all those of you who voted!!

                              With utmost gratitude,
