It was founded in 2005 by Vivian Dorsel, formerly Managing Editor of The Berkshire Review for eight years, who selected the members of the editorial staff for their love of the written word, their high standards of literary judgment, and their desire to offer a voice to prose writers and poets who might not find publication opportunities in more mainstream journals. upstreet number four was awarded the Bronze Medal in the Anthologies category of the 2008 Independent Publisher Book Awards. © 2009 Ledgetop Publishing Ledgetop Publishing P.
