general submission guidelines
Our online submission manager has portals for fiction, poetry, nonfiction, drama, and our blog, Online Sundries. If you'd like to submit something that doesn't fall into one of these categories, please send us a query before submitting. We no longer accept general submissions via post or email.
Simultaneous submissions are more than welcome, but please withdraw the piece via Submittable if it is accepted elsewhere. If one or more poems from a group you have submitted is accepted by another publication, please add a note to your submission indicating which poems are still available.
Guidelines for specific genres can be found in our submission portal.
Response time varies, but we usually take from four to six months, often much sooner. If you have not heard from us after six months, feel free to query us. Upon publication, we provide two contributor copies, as well as an honorarium.
We now charge a $3 submission fee. This fee is close to the postage required to send a submission and SASE through post, but goes directly to the magazine, which makes it possible for us to pay our contributors.
