Submit Your Work

Sea Crow Press is an independent publisher of eco-literature, climate fiction, and place-based writing rooted in landscape, memory, and the natural world.

We publish a select list of books each year and review submissions based on both literary merit and alignment with our editorial vision.

We are currently prioritizing eco-fiction and climate-focused manuscripts, while remaining open to exceptional work where place and environment are central to the story.

​

What We’re Looking For

We are especially interested in:

• Eco-fiction and climate fiction (cli-fi) that engages deeply with environmental change, human impact, and the evolving relationship between people and place

• Literary fiction and nonfiction shaped by landscape, regional identity, and a strong sense of place

• Poetry rooted in the natural world or the climate moment

Across genres, we are drawn to work that:

• Is immersive and voice-driven

• Uses setting as an essential force, not a backdrop

• Demonstrates emotional precision and literary craft

• Leaves a lasting, resonant impression

​

What We’re Not Looking For

• General fiction where place or environment is incidental

• Work that could be set anywhere without changing the story

• Didactic or message-first writing that prioritizes agenda over craft

• Submissions that do not reflect an awareness of our catalog or focus

• Chap books

• Children's books

• Books that have been previously published/self-published

​

Before You Submit

Sea Crow Press is a curated list, not a general-interest press.

We encourage you to explore our catalog and consider:

Does your work engage meaningfully with place, environment, or climate—and would it sit naturally alongside the books we publish?

If not, we may not be the right home for your work.

​

Submission Requirement

Along with your materials, please include a brief note:

Why is this manuscript a strong fit for Sea Crow Press?

Submissions that do not clearly align with our focus are unlikely to be considered.
