Under the Gum Tree is an independent literary arts micro-magazine. Because we strive for authentic connections through vulnerability, we exclusively publish creative nonfiction and visual art. We try to publish quarterly, but mostly whenever we feel like it, and accept submissions year-round. Click here for complete submission guidelines and here for subscription options.
