​
A Case for the Personhood of Trees is an anthology that examines the role of trees and the various ways to interpret their meanings. We are looking for poems that question how trees appear in your life. Where do they show up in your work? What metaphors do they inspire? What are they looming over in the background of your poems? We want poetry that exists among the trees. Instead of adhering to a strict theme, we encourage you to expand, define, and interpret. If you have a piece that fits, send it to us! We want to read your trees!
Guidelines:
Submit up to 5 poems in a single document. We read submissions blind, so make sure your name and contact information are not anywhere on the document itself. Click the link below to submit. All submissions are sent to innatedivinitybooks@gmail.com with the Subject Line: Trees Anthology Submission. In the body of the email, please provide a short bio written in third person. Attach your poems as a Microsoft Word .doc or .docx file to the email. If your poem requires specific formatting, we recommend sending your work as a PDF.
While we do accept poems that have been previously published, please be sure that you own the rights to your work and credit where it’s been published in the body of the email. Please let us know if you have any questions! We look forward to reading your work.

Sincerely,
