Little Red Leaves

Here We Are Hello

Little Red Leaves is a collectively edited online poetry journal. Our first issue will be released on May 7, 2007. Since this is a collective, we do not subscribe to any one poetics/school of poetry etc. and the hope is that this will still ensure an interesting read. We also have a handmade chapbook press, Dos Press, set to launch in May as well.
