Carrion Bloom Books is a small press based in New Orleans.

We started creating handbound small-edition books of poetry, prose, translation, and art in 2019. We’re currently in the studio, at the press, wherever crafting chapbooks, microchaps, paper ephemera, and some perfect bound paperbacks.

We admire work of all genres which might be described as: grotesque, ecologically resonant, too much, formally experimental, visually acoustic, radically embodied, transnational, or surreal (an incomplete list). We hope to promote work from marginalized communities and new or underrepresented writers.

We're inspired by other independent journals and presses including (but not limited to): Tilted House, Mercury Firs, Annulet, Thirdhand Books, Doublecross Press, Dialogos/Lavender Ink, Action Books, Asymptote Journal, Schism, co•im•press, Garden Door Press, Dream Pop Press, Inside the Castle, Ugly Duckling Presse, All Snakes Press, CLOAK, and others.
