Misprint Publishing

Literature corrected by lived experience

Misprint Publishing is the publishing imprint of 3rd Eye Street Media. It exists to publish writing shaped by people who have lived at the sharp end of systems, not people interpreting it from a distance.

Creator-Owned Publishing

3rd Eye Street Media publishes creator-owned work through Misprint Publishing, our literary imprint. This work exists as literature, record, and cultural memory — not content.

Writers retain ownership.

Editing preserves voice.

Consent is ongoing.

Nothing is cleaned up for comfort.

We publish zines, essays, chapbooks, books, anthologies, and hybrid and collected works.

Editorial Position

Literature corrected by lived experience is not a tagline. It is the editorial stance.

The work is not adjusted to meet expectations built by distance from the realities it describes.

Voice stays intact.

Ownership stays with the writer.

Consent does not expire.

We publish the work as it is.
