Submission Guidelines

[1]

We accept writing that wasn’t accepted by a publication, institution, contest, etc. Hell, even your school newspaper and family Christmas newsletter counts!
 

Poetry, short stories (8,000-word limit), essays, lyrics, and articles are all welcomed. 

[2]

We're gonna pass on pornography.

[3]

Writing that contains hate speech won't be tolerated, let alone accepted. So gross. 

[4]

Submissions will be reviewed by our editor. We aim to provide feedback within four weeks of receipt. Selected works will be published in our next (read: first!!) issue.

[5]

It can be tempting to use AI to generate your work, but please don't for a Reject submission. It's not super fun to write/generate, and it's even less fun to read.

Rejects, 
submit your work!

Every accepted submission will receive $50. Any additional money raised from our Kickstarter campaign from now until mid-September will mean more payment for our writers.

Submissions close September 19th!

Upload your submission or send a link, if that's easier!

Tell us a little bit about why this submission has stuck with you and why now feels like the right time to try again. This can be very brief! We read and we do not judge. *These answers will NOT be published unless we have permission from you to do so upon publication.
