Carnal Culture is an independent press that publishes, promotes and supports writers of kink and erotica. We are not in it for the money: our goal is to build a community. 

We publish writings focused on alternative, non-traditional sexual behaviors.
We’re interested primarily in non-fiction (memoirs, psychology, self-help, and guide books),
but accept erotic fiction as well, providing it explores the topic in a realistic and thoughtful way.

We also publish bi-annual anthologies, reflecting on Leather Culture today.
We accept articles, bios, short stories, poetry, photographs, and art relevant to the topic.

Carnal Culture is a hybrid publisher.

Carnal Culture puts special emphasis on in-person, experiential promotional events.
We partner with kink/sex-positive groups in NYC and around the country
to produce author events, such as kinky storytelling nights, live/online readings, book signings, pre-launch and launch parties, hybrid events (combining book promotions with play parties, talent shows, art exhibits, etc.) and more. Through our ongoing engagements, we form a close, mutually supportive framework. Click HERE to view/join our upcoming events.  

Carnal Culture is part of a network of self-published and traditionally published writers. 

We meet online and in-person to help each other out with beta-readings, 

peer reviews, editorial discussions, trouble-shooting various production/technical issues, etc. We also facilitate Q&A’s and mentorship programs with noted authors in the field.
