Submissions Overview

General Submissions — fiction, poetry, memoir, comics, hybrid, experimental, all the good stuff — are open two times a year. We encourage first-time authors to submit their work. Click on the current reading period for details. All submissions must be made through Submittable:

NOTE OUR NEW READING PERIODS:
February 15-May 15 and September 15-November 15

Additionally: By Prior Arrangement and Discovery submissions are welcome at any time. BUT do not use this option unless you have been invited to do so. Please provide the name of the editor who recommended you in your cover letter. Your submission will be rejected without this.
