Literary Outlaw is the publishing imprint of Savannah Schroll Guz. Guz is author of American Soma (So New, 2009) and The Famous & The Anonymous (Better Non Sequitur, 2004). She also edited the theme-based fiction anthology, Consumed: Women on Excess(2006). Her work has been nominated for a Pushcart and a Story South Million Writers’ Award. In 2008, her story “The Corpus Lupi Experiment” won Strange, Weird, and Wonderful Magazine’s “Best Fiction 2008” and “Best Horror Fiction 2008” awards.
Guz created Literary Outlaw to circumvent the traditionally cumbersome and frequently unreceptive publishing avenues currently open to writers. Because she has taken off on her own, avoiding the narrow publishing possibilities, lengthy response times, and grim reception usually offered by print and online literary journals, Guz is now a kind of literary outlaw. She follows no conventional rules except for those she feels make for good fiction. Read on. Here, you will find a declaration of literary independence.
