A new media community
We want to uplift writers and connect them with audiences who care.
Our Queer Histories: An Anthology Out now
From the aisles of Canadian Tire to the beaches of Hawai’i’s Puna District, experience yearning. Travel not only in distance, but in time to joyfully attend gay bars in the ‘80s, ‘90s, and ‘00s. Feel the weight of losing a good friend, of regret. Watch parents accept neighbours but not their children. Join us in telling a few government officials to shove it where the sun doesn't shine, and in raising your glass to every incredible queer body. Smile at all the first kisses, dances, and choose-yourself-finallys. This collection invites you to witness what it means—what it’s always meant—to be a queer person navigating the world.
All this and more in the Eavesdrop’s first anthology. You can purchase a limited Canadian-made copy, listen to the audio here or on your preferred music fix service, or browse through the handmade digital version.
Our Vision
-
ACCESSIBLE
We want to create a community that is accessible to everyone: readers, listeners, all lovers of words. We want to play in digital media to welcome in as many people as possible from all walks of life.
-
ACCOUNTABle
We always want to be in dialogue with the communities we are serving and the artists whose work we are publishing. If we can do better, we want to know. We are all learners and we strive to embody a growth mindset.
-
ARTISANAL
We want to support local artists, and that means supporting small print runs, handmade editions, and creative production in our communities. We want to hire local printmakers to print our anthologies and pay local artists to make our art.
