Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Blood Tree Literature favors lyrical pieces that do not withhold depth or resonance. With that in mind, submit to us your best, the box under your bed marked UNSHARABLE, the orphan poem or black sheep fiction. Send us your experimentals; be vulnerable, be calculated. Abusive or derogatory submissions are not allowed - not now, not ever. BTL is a pro-choice, trans-inclusive, anti-racist publication.

Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
We do not require a cover letter, only a brief biographical statement (including your pronouns) to use with any published piece(s).
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
The foremost qualities we look for in submissions are structural experimentation, lyricism in language, and thematic depth. We want to be moved in some way -- physically or aesthetically on the page, sonically, emotionally.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Try your experiments on us! We love hybrid forms, hyper-deliberate choices, and artistic license. The more particular a piece is, the more we want to consider it.
