This library contains many excerpts of “green reads”–stories that speak from our place in the natural world. The Dragonfly Library welcome submissions of all green reads–nonfiction, fiction, poetry & prose, graphic novel, and short story excerpts. You may also submit nonfiction nature writing in the forms of articles and essays. See Dragonfly Library’s submission guidelines.
