bad apple is a queer, community-focused publication project dedicated to Aotearoa’s minority communities.

Āporo Press is bad apple's associated micro-press established and run by Damien Levi. We aim to publish works by minority voices in Aotearoa New Zealand and fill gaps in the market left unaddressed by major publishing houses.

bad apple's Live Project

Three Books from Āporo Press

This project helps support the publication of three books by kaituhi Māori, published by Āporo Press. In the next year, Āporo Press will publish debut full-length poetry collections from Nicola Andrews (Ngāti Paoa) and Jo Bragg (Ngāti Porou) as well as a debut novel by Laura Vincent (Ngāti Māhanga, Ngāpuhi). This campaign aims to supplement the financial cost of publishing these books.
