Steve Gillis, co-founder and publisher of Dzanc Books, plans to retire to have more time for his literary career. He's published two short story collections and five novels, and his next book, Liars, will be published by Red Hen Press in 2018.
"Co-founding Dzanc and working as publisher these last 10 years has been a huge part of my life and something I'm truly appreciative to have experienced," Gillis said. "Dan [Wickett] and I were able to build Dzanc from an idea shared over drinks (well, I was drinking at least) to what I believe is now one of the better independent presses in the country. I know I am leaving Dzanc in great hands with Guy Intoci and Michelle Dotter and Michael Seidlinger, and as I move on to future projects I'll be watching as Dzanc continues to stretch her wings and offer great writing to the public."
Dzanc Books will continue under the guidance of editor-in-chief Guy Intoci, who has been with the press since 2013.
