Guidelines

---

• Prose: up to 2 pieces, with a total limit of 5000 words.

• Poetry: up to 3 poems, with a total limit of 5 pages.

• If you are submitting multiple pieces, please ensure they are collated in a single document.
• Please follow standard formatting guidelines, and use a 12-point legible font (Times New Roman or similar) for all submissions.

• If you’ve submitted a piece and it’s accepted elsewhere, please let us know and withdraw your submission. We only accept previously unpublished works.

• We only accept BLIND SUBMISSIONS. All work should be uploaded in a single document without any personal information, including your name.

• Include the word count and any applicable content warnings in this document.

• We do not tolerate plagiarism or hateful/discriminatory content of any kind. We also refuse to publish any AI-generated content.

• We strongly encourage writers to use content warnings, especially regarding sensitive material. (graphic violence, self-injury, erotic scenes, etc.) These should be included in the document with your written work.

• We’re up for anything but lean more toward genre fiction, SFF, speculative fiction, and stories that fall outside literary realism. We especially encourage submissions featuring queer characters/themes or by 2SLGBTQIA+ writers.

• At this time, please submit prose pieces in English only. Poetry may be submitted in English or another language so long as your work is accompanied by an English translation.

• For standard submission calls, everyone is welcome to submit. If a call or issue is seeking only writers of a particular group, we operate based on self-identification and ask writers to please respect the space.

These guidelines may be subject to change.

Thank you!
