Texas Review Press, a member of the Texas A&M University Press
Consortium, was established in 1979 but published only chapbooks
and an occasional anthology until 1992, when it introduced the
Southern and Southwestern Writers Breakthrough Series.  It now
publishes six to eight books a year and has over forty titles in print.

Texas Review Press attempts to meet the needs of an international 
as well as regional and local audience. We continue to conduct four 
international competitions: the Robert Phillips Poetry Chapbook Prize
for best poetry chapbook of up to thirty-two pages, the X. J. Kennedy
Poetry Prize for a full-length collection of poems, the George Garrett
Fiction Prize for a short novel or collection of stories, and the newly
named Clay Reynolds Novella Prize for best novella.
