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.
