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

October 1, 2024

Thanks for your interest in Empty Bowl Press.

We’re closed for submissions for now. 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 developing a new series and planning other publications to celebrate. We’ll have more details in January 2025, so please check back then.

We appreciate your support very much
