Our Projects:

The Habit of Rainy Nights Press is our literary publishing imprint. Established in 2003 to publish Raising Our Voices: An Anthology of Oregon Poets Against the War, The Habit of Rainy Nights Press has gone on to publish several more fine literary books. In 2012, we will be publishing two new books, one each by Brittney Corrigan and Ralph Salisbury. Our publishing efforts will also include ebooks under the Elohi Gadugi Digital imprint, and genre books under the Elohi Gadugi Books imprint.

Elohi Gadugi Journal  is a new online literary journal we will kick off in early 2012. The best work from the journal will be published in an annual print edition in the fall.

Readings @ Milepost 5 is a monthly reading series at Portland’s Milepost 5 artist community. Starting in October, Readings @ Milepost 5 has been a successful venue for local poets and writers.
