WHAT IS GREAT WEATHER FOR MEDIA, LLC, AND WHAT DO THEY DO?
Great Weather for MEDIA, LLC is a New York City-based independent press founded in January 2012 by former Uphook Press editors Jane Ormerod, Thomas Fucaloro, and Brant Lyon, along with editors George Wallace and David Lawton, that specializes in spotlighting the “unpredictable, the fearless, the bright, the dark, and the innovative” in writing. They showcase both national and international writers, as well as publish the highest quality poetry and prose. In addition, they organize numerous readings, performances, and book releases in New York City and nationwide.

Great Weather Spoken Word Sundays Reading Series
This group of kick-ass editors does more for NYC literary arts than most editors in big-wig publishing companies. Not only do they work with the authors to get their writes published, but they also inspire authors. This is a company of hard-working authors and artists doing more than the average.
Each year they arrange a nationwide reading tour for the writers that includes yearly anthologies — concurrent with curating their Great Weather Spoken Word Sundays Reading Series and much more. With all that they contribute to the arts, they also inspire their clientele by being an example of great writers and authors, which is why people choose them when they want to be published.
People want to work with whom they admire and see succeeding at what they do. And great weather for MEDIA, LLC is doing just that – succeeding!
