Driftwood Press John Updike once said, "Creativity is merely a plus name for regular activity. Driftwood Press was founded in Tampa, FL in 2013.

Driftwood Press is devoted to finding fiction, poetry, comics, photography, lyric essays, literary criticisms, interviews, and other experimental work that is inventive, poignant, and literary. Any activity becomes creative when the doer cares about doing it right, or better." At Driftwood Press, we are actively searching for artists who care about doing it right, or better. We strive to provide o

ur readers with the highest quality content. This includes fiction, poetry, photography, graphic narrative, literary criticism, and interviews.

We are excited to receive your submissions and will diligently work to bring you the best in literary and artistic excellence. As our magazine grows, we hope to offer new features and genres as well. Our first issue will be released in winter of 2013.
