Coyote Point Press is the literary fiction imprint of Flying Ketchup Press, publishing short stories of the highest caliber.  We believe in exceptional fiction that pushes the boundaries of genres and spans emotional landscapes, taking readers behind the masks and under the skin of our evocative, complicated and frail humanity.  Our stories unearth bouts of passion, frailty, renewal and tenderness, and most importantly, awaken our readers to every moment that makes us feel fully human and alive.
