All four of Et Alia's books written by Arkansas authors have been featured in The Arkansas Literary Festival, held each April in Little Rock. Not too shabby for a very small press!
In 2016, Philip Martin's The President Next Door: Poems, Songs, and Journalism and Erin Wood's Scars: An Anthology participated in the festival. Previously, F. H. Thurmond's books Ring of Five: A Novella and Four Stories and Before I Sleep: A Memoir of Travel and Reconciliation were featured in 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Et Alia is proud to bring Arkansas voices to the state and beyond, and to participate in this nationally recognized event.
