Zach Hively is the founder of Casa Urraca Press, an independent publishing company specializing in New Mexican authors of creative nonfiction, poetry, fiction, and other works. New Mexico and the U.S. Southwest are rich in creative and literary talent. We believe the rest of the world deserves to experience our perspectives. So we champion books that belong in the conversation—books with the power, compassion, and variety to bring very different people closer together. Hively himself is an award-winning poet and humor columnist. His book, Desert Apocrypha, earned the Reading the West Book Award. His collection of short essays is Call Me Zach Hively Because That Is My Name, which has sold actual copies. “In fact,” writes the Abiquiú News, “he’s never made us cry.” In addition to visiting Hively on the Studio Tour, you can find his books in area stores and galleries, and read new work weekly on Substack.
