About Snail House Literary
Snail house was founded by Greta Garretson in the summer of 2025.
We are looking for short stories, poems, comics and artwork by authors and artists aged 15 and under. We are open to all genres, so long as the subject matter is suitable for children and not overly violent or cruel.
We publish one piece of writing or artwork each month.
We believe art and literature are vital to being well-rounded students, and that snails (as well as humans and other animals) should always be treated with kindness and respect.
“A snail, who had a way, it seems,
Of dreaming very curious dreams,
Once dreamed he was—you’ll never guess!—
The Lightning Limited Express!” – The Snail’s Dream by Oliver Herford
