This Winter Solstice will see the release of the first issue of Written River, a literary journal from Hiraeth Press focusing on eco-poetics and related non-fiction prose.
Written River is a literary journal published by Hiraeth Press which focuses on poetry and non-fiction prose exploring nature and our relationship to it. Published quarterly in digital format, we strive to encourage the discipline of ecopoetics and return the voice of the poet to the body of the Earth. Ecopoetics is poetry in which the energy of the ecosystem flows through the poem, creating a written river of words which ebbs with the creativity of the entire Earth community. Written River marks the confluence of many streams and many voices as they flow back into the nourishing ground of the watershed.
If you are interested in submitting your work to Written River please see our submission guidelines.
We donate 1% of our yearly profits to an Eco-Charity. The 2012 charity is the International Appalachian Trail.
