About

Basalt Sea Press is an independent literary publishing house devoted to stories that rise from the land, memory, and mythic imagination of the American West.
We specialize in mythic fiction, historical realism, and hybrid narrative forms that draw from Indigenous oral traditions while embracing contemporary literary craft. Our work honors the power of story as both inheritance and evolution — a living continuum that reaches from ancestral voices into the hands of modern readers.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
Be professional, patient, and persistent.
