Tin House is an American literary magazine and book publisher based in Portland, Oregon and New York City . Portland publisher Win McCormack came up with the idea for Tin House Magazine in the summer of 1998. He established Holly MacArthur as editor-in-chief, and with the help of two seasoned New York editors, Rob Spillman and Elissa Schappell , he put his idea into practice.

In 2005, Tin House expanded with a book publisher Tin House Books . They also ran a restricted-admission summer writing workshop at Reed College .

Tin House Magazine

Tin House publishes both fiction and poetry , and interviews with key literary contemporaries are published, and a Lost and Found section is dedicated to exceptional material from public areas and what is usually overlooked, including drink recipes. It is also reviewed by many other notable literary journals for work by previously unpublished writers for their New Voices section.

A 2003 Summer 2003 story, Breasts by Stuart Dybek , was featured in The Best American Short Stories of 2004, and in 2006, Window by Deborah Eisenberg was a judging favorite among the O. Henry Prize stories.
