Tips From the Editor: 

2Leaf Press began as a poetry press and then expanded into nonfiction that addresses cultural and contemporary issues, including literary criticism, memoirs, and collections of short stories and essays. We occasionally publish fiction, and will only consider poetry from established poets with a track record. You may want to consider submitting books under our 2LP Series and invite you to consider those requirements.

Make sure you have a professional editor review your work before you submit it. Submissions riddled with typos and poorly formed poetry will automatically get discarded.

Titles per Year: 
6 to 10
Editorial Focus:
