SUBMISSIONS

Our mission is to publish work by writers who share Empty Bowl’s founding purpose: literature
&
responsibility, and its fundamental theme, the love and preservation of human communities in wild places.

Submissions

February 2025

Thanks for your interest in Empty Bowl Press.

We’re closed for submissions. As a small independent press, we publish just four books a year and have already committed to our titles for 2025.

In 2026, Empty Bowl will mark its 50th anniversary! We’re planning publications to celebrate that milestone.

We appreciate your support very much
