Broken Tribe Press 

Two calls in one! One theme: the color blue. 

Call for stories or poems for print anthology on the color blue:  Free submission. 

Call for story & poetry collections featuring the color blue. Please include the $10 reading fee for your manuscript to be considered.

The color must be featured in the work and/or title in some way. 

Sept. 1 - Nov. 1 

We accept poetry books 75 pages +, short fiction collections 90 pages+, excluding front and back matter.

Simultaneous submissions are okay. Please withdraw your work immediately if it is accepted elsewhere; however, there are no refunds.

We only accept unpublished works for this submission. Sections previously published as a chapbook or individual poems or stories are acceptable, but the manuscript as a whole must be unpublished.

Manuscript Guidelines:

· Do not include any identifying information on your manuscript. This is a blind reading by five readers in five different states. The work is judged solely on the work, not who you are or where you’re from.

· Please, only human-produced writing with a soul. NO AI AT ALL.

· Please submit as .docx or pdf

· Include a Table of Contents for collections

· Number the pages

· Include a brief cover letter with a brief bio in third person and brief synopsis of the work (no more than a page total) as a separate upload.

Broken Tribe Press:

Our books are paperback, perfect bound, color cover, with printed spine (writer's name, title, press). Story/poetry collections and novellas are 5 x 8 and novels are in 6 x 9. 

We are committed to publishing accepted titles within ten to twelve months of acceptance in book paperback and ebook formats. The anthology is due late 2027. 

We offer a standard contract, a small number of author copies, a substantial discount on additional copies purchased by the author, and an annual royalty payment. There are NO fees to publish your book once accepted; however, we do offer optional fee-based marketing services.
