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 now closed to submissions. We will be open from January 15th to January 31st, 2026. See our submissions page for our guidelines: https://fallentreepress.com/submissions.

Our contest, Leaves of Life. is now closed. Thank you to those who submitted. Stay tuned for the announcement of the winner.
