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 set ourselves apart with eye-catching book covers, custom book merchandise, and fee-free submissions for all opportunities,
Although we are highly selective, our commitment is to be approachable to every writer, regardless of their publication history, audience size, educational background, or previous accolades.
We're interested in receiving submissions of poetry manuscripts for publication in 2026 and 2027.
Simultaneous submissions are allowed. Please include acknowledgements for any previously published poems.
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.
