Fallen Tree Press is a small press specializing in publishing poetry chapbooks. We are focused on being part of the larger writing community. It’s our intent to promote a diverse group of writers, especially those identifying as women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and members of underserved groups. Whenever possible, a portion of the proceeds from book sales will be donated to charity. The charities will be selected in conjunction with the authors.
We are running a micro-chapbook contest from October 15, 2024 to January 1, 2025, limited to 50 submissions. We are looking for poetry chapbooks with 16-32 pages of poetry. See our page Bare Roots Micro Chapbook Contest
We are closed to submissions. See our submissions page for our guidelines: https://fallentreepress.com/submissions
Announcing our chapbooks for 2024!
Our submissions in January 2024 were so amazing, we picked two! We are very pleased to announce Blood Quantum & Other Hate Crimes by Marsheila Rockwell and Mundane Things by Kateema Lee. In Blood Quantum, Métis poet Marsheila Rockwell gives us a “howl of defiance against erasure” (Chris La Tray), exploring life in the in-between. In Mundane Things, Kateema Lee guides us to the heart of everyday life. Both of these chapbooks tell you things you didn’t know you needed to hear. Don’t miss these books by two fantastic poets.
Mundate Things by Kateema Lee is now available in our shop and on Amazon.
Blood Quantum & Other Hate Crimes by Marsheila Rockwell is in stock and available from our shop and on Amazon.
