Seven years ago, we announced that This Land Press would take a publishing hiatus and focus its energies on other projects.
Today, This Land Press is proud to launch a new imprint, The Pickup.
will bring a fresh eye to Tulsa with the same courage, savvy, and critical insight as This Land did from 2010 through 2016.
With This Land, we hit a motherlode, finding stories that were enlightening, funny, terrifying, insightful, and often profoundly moving. All of our work with This Land deepened our readers’ understanding of and appreciation for this place. Tulsa. The middle of America. This land.
With The Pickup, we hope to do the same and give you even more to think about. There are plenty of untold stories still here. The Pickup will be an online subscription-based magazine that features a wide range of voices.
It will be forward-looking, with an editorial mix blending local commentary with community-oriented journalism and feature stories, as well as weekly roundups of Tulsa food, music, arts, cultural events, and local news from the middle of America.
As we launch, we ask you to do three things. First, follow on Instagram. Second, read abs subscribe at the www.thepickup.com. (Link is in the bio.) Third, know with certainty that more is ahead and what you see now is the tip of the iceberg. And finally, dive in.
Thanks for being part of what lies ahead. Tulsa has an extraordinary community of talented writers, thinkers, and creators. Let’s listen to what they have to say.
