Welcome to Cooldog Publications
Welcome. Here at Cooldog Publications our aim is a simple one - to encourage and publish the very best in new writing. Whether you are a writer or a reader of quality new work, this site is dedicated to you.
Cooldog Publications is an independent publisher launched in 2008. We provide a shop window for developing writers from across the world to help them to get their work into print.
We publish the Cooldog E-Mag – our on-line magazine filled with high quality short stories and poetry by developing writers – see our Sample Stories for some examples of what you can expect. We also host the annual Cooldog Prize writing contest, which offers substantial cash prizes as well as publication in our anthology.
For writers, we are looking for good, original short stories and poetry. We run regular short story and poetry competitions for entry into our E-Mag – and award cash prizes for the top three entries in each category. Take a look at our Writing Competitions for details.
For readers seeking original, well-written and entertaining new writing, a subscription to the Cooldog E-Mag is the best way to find it. This on-line magazine is published 3 times a year and contains an excellent range of new material from up-and-coming writers. Go to our Subscription to E-Mag and sign up today.
As part of our aim to encourage new talent we offer a Critique Service for both short stories and poetry. If you feel your work would benefit from an objective and professional assessment, please see our Critique Services for details.
Finally, you can browse through the selection of books in our On-line Shop and find titles that will inspire you in your writing and offer help in improving your technique.
