Lit Fox Books, a nonprofit press based in Austin, TX, is a woman-owned organization dedicated to preserving authors’ artistic visions in a vibrant and supportive environment. 

We're excited to offer a five-day poetry residency in Austin, TX! This residency takes place in a two bedroom house (+1 or +2 are welcome) within walking distance of Lady Bird Lake and restaurants. There is no submission fee and there's no fee to attend. The residency will begin on July 7th and end on July 11th.

Includes:

  • Editorial feedback on your poetry
  • An interview with Lit Fox Books
  • A copy of an upcoming Lit Fox Books release
  • A $200 food stipend 

The selected poet is welcome to enjoy the residency privately or bring one or two guests. Please note that Lit Fox Books is unable to cover travel expenses at this time. 

Feel free to check out the property here.

We expect to start reaching out to top candidates by May 5th and should have our winner by May 15th. 


 

The Lit Fox Poetry Series is a publication featuring one exceptional poem per quarter. Payment is $150, and the selected poem will be our featured poem for three months. As always, there is no submission fee.


We tend to like free verse poetry, prose poetry, and vivid imagery. That being said, we are open to all types of poetry. 


Please submit 1-5 poems in a single document.
