We believe feminism is more than equality —

it's a force for empowerment.

redrosethorns is a feminist independent press and literary community exploring mental health, identity, and liberation. Our mission is to create a supportive space where individuals connect with their authentic selves, find their voices, and work collectively to dismantle what holds us back. We're building toward a more equitable world through two pathways: a publishing platform for voices ready to speak their truth; and events and workshops that nurture self-worth and connection.

Whether you're here to read, write, or simply belong, you're in the right place.

Our voices are our power, and our connection is our strength.  

CJ The Tall Poet

“When I first found redrosethorns, I was extremely surprised to find so many powerful pieces that I could relate to. When I first submitted my first piece here, I was so shocked when it got accepted. Writing personal poetry pieces about my identity has been somewhat therapeutic. I recently attended a redrosethorns open mic and it was very comfy."
