OUR GUIDELINESWe publish daring work that is innovative, striking, and emotive in its narrative and ideas. We welcome poetry, short fiction, and creative non-fiction by published and unpublished writers. We DO NOT accept simultaneous submissions. We read all submissions within two to three months and will contact you if we’re interested in publishing your work. If you do not hear from us within three months, please note that it is due to a heavy load of submissions.
Guidelines:
short story workshop
Our Editors' Short Story Workshop offers emerging writers the opportunity to have their stories workshopped and considered for publication in future issues. You may submit up to one short story per submission, and it must be within a 1,000-2,500 word range. Short stories that exceed this limit will neither be considered nor workshopped. Once you receive your workshopped story back, you may submit with us again. We read all submissions within two to three months, although we may respond in less.
We charge a nominal submission fee of $12 per submission. Submission fees are non-refundable. |
