About

Well what the heck is a
jelly bucket?

It’s an archaic slang term for a lunch pail, formerly used by coal miners and other laborers residing in Appalachia.

You've found your personal jelly bucket; a great place to fuel your literary interests. Jelly Bucket is the place to for book reviews, author interviews and insightful stories all curated by our staff and MFA students of the Bluegrass Writers Studio.

Issue #12 with Special Section: Indigenous Voices is available now

Jelly Bucket #12 is finally here! This year we feature the Indigenous community showcasing thought-provoking fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry and art by authors such as Shehashe Littledave, Ricardo Nazario Y Colón, Sage Ravenwood, Jeanette Weaskus, and Robyn Katona. With his stunning and intricate art, Alan Groves is our featured artist for the Indigenous Voices issue. The special section is guest edited by Annette Saunooke Clapsaddle.

In the words of our Editor-in-Chief this year, Eric Willis says “the general section (contains) a wide array of entries that, as a whole, speak to something universal, something rooted in all of us as humans. The relationship, in a multitude of forms, takes hold of the heart of these words and stories—mothers and daughters, the human in nature, intimate partners, the writer and the written page, the observer questioning the world around them.”

We invite you to discover and enjoy!
