Turning Plow Press will open for general submissions May 1-June 31st, 2026.

--Please query, via email, before submitting your work, and tell us, briefly, about yourself and your manscript. If we want to see your manscript, we will ask you to send it to us.

--Please take some time to review our catalog. Read the works of the writers we publish.

--Although we are not strictly a "regional" press, we do give priority to writers of poetry and fiction who live in Oklahoma, Texas, and Kansas.

--We do not publish chapbooks. Poetry manuscripts should be greater than 60 pages, and we prefer 90 pages and up.

--We consider only literary poetry and fiction.  We publish for readers who are page- dwellers, not page-turners.

--We do not publish memoirs or biographies.
