SUBMISSIONS OPEN
Blue House Literary
In our pursuit to provide a diverse press with equitable representation to writers and authors from all walks of life, Blue House Literary accepts both solicited and unagented submissions.
We accept submissions in most genres, including all types of fiction, poetry, cross-genre experimental pieces, children’s fiction, and creative nonfiction (including memoir). Blue House Literary does not publish traditional self-help or wellness nonfiction, but if you think you have an unconventional idea for a piece of prescriptive nonfiction, we’d love to hear about it!
