     High Chair is a nonprofit small press that aims to promote genuine interest in poetry in the Philippines.

     The journal is mostly edited by Allan Popa. High Chair operations are handled by Mabi David. Marc Gaba occasionally co-edits and has done work in book design. Kristine Domingo assists in all areas. Alex Gregorio is the fifth man of the founding group.

     The editor/s of the journal solicit work directly from poets, and welcome prose submissions.

     Manuscripts for book publication are selected by the group, in conversation with Mesandel Virtusio Arguelles, Conchitina Cruz, EJ Galang, Mayo Uno Martin, and Vincenz Serrano.





     Unsolicited submissions to the prose sections of the website are welcome. Although the articles that chiefly interest us are fair and perceptive reviews of poetry books (whether in or out of print), personal essays of communal interest, and extended appreciations or reappraisals of Filipino work, we impose no limitations on the forms of thoughtful, polished, poetry-related prose we would be very happy to upload.

     While we believe that poetry’s audience can and ought to be enlarged, please note that the High Chair journal is not primarily meant for that cause; the journal’s envisioned readers are those who are or might be keenly interested in poetry. Previously published material is acceptable. Please send submissions to highchair@gmail.com
