We respect and value every submission that comes across our desks. We read them all, consider them all, and try and give honest, sensitive, and timely feedback. Our mission is to promote engaged, conscious living with particular emphasis on the food we eat, the words we read, and the art we see. We want to inspire, uplift, and nourish our readers.

Though we put a lot of work into the finished product, we know that we do not exist without the writers, artists, and foodies that submit to us and support us by reading our pages. Hungry Folktale believes that readers come first, contributors second, and ourselves third.
