About the press
In Search of Peace Press makes zines about community justice, gay sexuality, and trauma, from Lovingston, Virginia.
It's run by Wilfred Henry, a bodyworker, circle keeper, and rural mail carrier. Every zine is free to read, print, copy, and pass on, and printed copies go out by mail for the postage. The press prints the In Search of Peace Fund's materials, and points to other presses' books it can't give away yet.
Lines and inks
- Community justice Teal and Sunflower. Circles, pods, accountability, and what to do instead of calling the police.
- Gay sexuality Federal Blue and Fluorescent Pink. Bodies, desire, consent, and touch between men, in plain words.
- Trauma Black and Orange. The nervous system, parts, and getting through it.
Some titles break from their line's inks when the work asks for it.
Formats
Quarter-sheet zines (4¼ × 5½) are short, practical guides. Half-sheet zines (5½ × 8½) hold the longer essays. Both are saddle-stitched: folded, with two staples in the fold.

Privacy
This site has no analytics, no cookies, and no trackers, and it loads nothing from anyone else's servers. The one script on it remembers which zines you put in your envelope, in your own browser and nowhere else. If you mail us, your address is used once, to mail you back. If you pay postage online, the card company sees what card companies see; we see your address and your list, and keep neither.
