Submission calls

nonfictionLiterary

Submissions are open for nonfiction, book reviews, interviews, critiques, and braided essays. Length is 1,000–3,000 words, though this is not a hard rule.

poetry

Submissions are open. Submit 1–5 poems; titles are preferred, and translations are welcome. The magazine especially likes political, ecopoetry, love, body, feminist, and queer poetry, as well as hybrid, experimental, and cross-genre work. Please no COVID/quarantine poems or light verse; the magazine is wary of alternating rhyme schemes.
