My new book is IN THE WORLD! Thank you so much @hedgehogpoetry You would make me endlessly happy if you check out my launch video! m.youtube.com/watch?v=mtFwKu…

Do you write ecopoetry? Submissions are free for Issue 3.

Hey, we're open for submissions.

Did you hear? We're open for submissions for issue three. If you write ecopoetry, we want to read it.

@chillsubs we just opened our submissions window!

So please, send your poetry. We can't wait to read it. Guidelines and submission info: aliceflorenceorr.com/leanandloafe

Surprise! Submissions for issue three are now open. We're a tiny journal so our issues are sporadic and often respond to my capacity. But it felt like the right time to work on a new collection. There are a few changes this time. Keep reading for the updates...

New record for me: 2023 Submission Rejections = 93. That includes poems, full manuscripts, a chapbook, grant applications, & a short story. This after committing to submitting SOMETHING at least once per week in 2020—& since I’ve mostly kept to that. The sting gets less brutal...
