We are a lab, we are a press. For making, creating, talking, co-conspiring, imagining, building, and healing. To answer the question, “What happens after the reading, in between the writing, thinking, and living?” Alternative Field welcomes dialogue, discourse, and cooperative thinking in ways that may instigate internal but constructive criticism. We publish anthologies that invite the community to use their known and/or unknown poetic sensibilities to share this discourse. We support poets whose work facilitates certain guidance towards understanding.

Alternative Field Notes is our small press imprint. We welcome collaboration in all of its definitions.

 
 

Due to our limited capacity, Alternative Field Notes does not accept unsolicited submissions (outside of our calls for submission). We will not be able to answer your email or hard copy submissions. We wish you the most of luck in your submission process.
