Welcome to Leipzig Glocal Publishing!

The Leipzig Glocal (LeipGlo) was founded in 2015 by Ana Beatriz Ribeiro as a webzine/blog, and it later became an organizer of job fairs, open mics, and other events for the international community in Leipzig, Germany. Its mission has now evolved away from hyperlocal daily or weekly publishing and into a slower, more intentional process looking beyond the Leipzig-based community. The founder currently runs the website alone and has turned the brand into a publishing imprint for print and e-books and maybe later also multimedia and music.

At the moment Leipzig Glocal Publishing is in beta phase, meaning the founder is publishing her own books under the imprint. It may later be extended to publishing other people’s work. LeipGlo’s core values remain progressive, inclusive, and social-issue-focused, with a deep love for diversity and travel. You can still find hundreds of past articles on the website.

Hopefully you’ll continue to accompany LeipGlo on its winding journey!

If you’d like to appear on the website as a guest contributor, LeipGlo.com is accepting book or music reviews, poems, short stories, or book excerpts (fiction or non-fiction). The website is no longer posting news, opinion pieces (other than reviews), or event advances (except on the events page, where you’re asked to post on your own). The publishing of articles is sporadic and not suitable for time-sensitive pieces. If you’re still interested, have a look at the guidelines for potential writers, and/or drop Ana a line: ana@leipglo.com.
