Submissions

Our literary magazine publishes themed quarterly issues, with submissions opening during specific calls. In addition to our regular issues, we showcase a Featured Writing piece that highlights exceptional work.

Each week, our Editor’s Pick shines a spotlight on a captivating piece, offering readers fresh and engaging perspectives.

We want short stories, poems, non-fiction pieces, art and photographs from writers and artists across the globe. All genres are welcome, but literary pieces and art must be in English (translations welcome). Works must be original and previously unpublished.
