Taking the short story for a ride on the wild side...

HOTWIRE is a brand new imprint at Nine Arches Press for 2011, and is specifically for the short story, published in pamphlet form.

HOTWIRE short story pamphlets will be following up on the sucess of our poetry pamphlets and staying true to our commitment to publishing great, essential new literature that is both beautifully produced and affordable.

The first HOTWIRE short story pamphlet will be Joel Lane's Do Not Pass Go - five searing and gritty tales of Birmingham Crime Noir.
