Guidelines

• Submissions are open to all writers, no matter your publication history.
• Send us unpublished work only. (Even if it’s published on your blog.)
• Prose length: Up to 1,000 words. Poetry length: Up to two pages.
• You may submit up to two pieces per submission, as long as they fit within the total word or page limits.
• Send your work as one document.
• Submit prose double-spaced in a standard format, like Times New Roman. Absolutely zero Comic Sans.
• We have no format requirements for poetry or other works.
• Simultaneous submissions are fine, but let us know if your piece is picked up elsewhere.
• If your piece doesn’t quite fit any of the genres listed, select the closest one and note how you would describe it in your cover letter.
• Multiple submissions are welcome, but each requires a separate $10 fee.
• In your brief cover letter, include a brief bio, what genre you’re writing in, and your publication history. If you haven’t published before, that’s great! Send it!
• We accept your own translations of your unpublished work.
• International submissions are welcome, as long as the work is primarily in English. Code-switching/meshing is also welcome.
• Absolutely no AI-generated or AI-assisted work.
• Please consider including a content warning if your work engages in potentially triggering content. Your work will not be judged based on this warning, and we will appreciate the consideration you're giving to our reading staff.
• We aim to reply within four weeks.
