First Matter Press
First Matter Press is a non-profit press in Portland, Oregon founded in 2018 to dissolve publication barriers for first-time poets and genre-breaking writers. They amplify local voices while empowering authorial ownership. With 22 titles available or in production, their annual releases center community and craft by inviting authors into a creative cohort where they crystallize manuscripts in dialogue with editors and fellow writers and collaborate with featured artists on original cover art. In 2024, they were awarded an Oregon Literary Fellowship for Publishers.
