FAQs

Scarlet Tiger Press is open to submissions year-round, and we love receiving new work, however at present we only publish 2-3 main titles per year, plus a scattering of Interlude pamphlets.
Please send submissions to hello@scarlettigerpress.com.

We are interested in receiving work from writers who engage with environmental themes, and are happy to consider work from all genres.
If you would like us to consider your work, please send a short sample that gives us a good flavour of the work as a whole (for poetry this doesn’t need to be consecutive, but for fiction it should be from the beginning of the piece). An author bio and a synopsis if it is a work of fiction or non-fiction is also great!
Any font and formatting is fine, just make sure it is legible.
Finally, we would also appreciate a cover letter letting us know why you would like to be published by Scarlet Tiger Press.

Interludes is our series of fleeting pamphlets that exist for a time and are gone. They are the ideal space for experimentation and play. These pamphlets are usually under 36 pages and are staple bound. If you would like your work to be part of our Interludes series, please indicate this in your email.

Scarlet Tiger Press is a very small team so it might take us a little while to respond, however we will do our best to let you know if we would like to publish your work within 3 months. Feel free to nudge us if you are still waiting after this time!
Making a start.
We’re on the hunt for contributors to our next book.
This exciting project will delve into the minds of artists and makers from a variety of disciplines, exploring the magic of the beginning.
Your work must engage with or draw inspiration from the environment and the natural world. We believe this connection adds unique weight to the act of starting.
In the face of the climate crisis, why do you choose to create? What does it mean to dedicate time to the art of making at such a pivotal moment for humanity?
If you would like to take part, please get in touch with us via the email address below telling us a bit more about you and your work.
