Hood of Bone Review – Call for Poetry

submitted by

Hood of Bone Review


Call For Submissions
We are looking for southern musing. Appalachian avant-garde. Slash-pile stuff.

During our reading periods, we accept submissions on a rolling basis.

For poetry, submit up to six poems. Poems must be in the body of the email. Attachments are no longer permitted, and any submission including an attachment will not be read. 

For visual art, please submit up to ten images. Images must be high-resolution to be considered for publication. We accept photography, painting, collage, drawing, and printmaking.

Please do not submit previously published material. Hood of Bone does accept simultaneous submissions, but we ask that you inform us immediately if any simultaneous work is accepted elsewhere.

Submissions should include a short, third-person artist’s bio (no more than four sentences) and a cover letter. Translations are welcome and must be accompanied by the original text and original author’s name, as well as a short bio for both the translator and the author.

We do not currently accept manuscripts.

At this time, Hood of Bone is not a paying market.

To submit, please email your submission to [email protected]. Your submission should include a cover letter in the body of the email. Due to the small size of our staff and the increasing volume of submissions we receive, we are unable to respond to every submission not accepted for publication. However, please feel free to send a follow-up email inquiring about the status of your submission.


Submission Period
March 5, 2026 - June 5, 2026
