Guidelines

• Prose length: Up to 1,000 words. Poetry length: Up to two pages. (If you’re a little over the word count and can’t chop it without killing the monster, send it anyway.)
• 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.
• Send us unpublished work only. (Yes, even if it’s published on your blog.)
• Submissions are open to all writers, no matter your publication history.
• Send your work as one document.
• We accept your own translations of your unpublished work.
• Multiple submissions are welcome, but each requires its own $10 entry fee.
• Absolutely no AI-generated or AI-assisted work.
• Simultaneous submissions are fine, but let us know if your piece is picked up elsewhere. Otherwise, we’ll curse you.
• 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.
• International submissions are welcome, as long as the work is primarily in English. Code-switching/meshing is also welcome.
• 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.
• 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!
• Questions? Contact us at contact@glossyplanetmag.com.
• We aim to reply within four weeks.
