Tips From the Editor: 

Blue Horse Press publishes books and chapbooks, but only on an occasional and unsolicited basis.

Titles per Year: 
6 to 10
Editorial Focus: 

Though not their only interest, Blue Horse Press has a strong like for poetry of place and the relationship between lives and landscapes. Most importantly, they seek an economy of language with a keen focus on voice and image. They like a touch of Lorca’s duende that loves ledges and wounds, Kant’s “crooked timber of humanity.” They have no interest in work whose primary focus is the American political scene.

Representative Authors: 

Jack Bedell, Tyree Daye, Gary Copeland Lilley, Rick Campbell, Al MaGinnes

A few
