Response time varies, but we hope to get back to you within 4 weeks or so. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer individualized feedback on submissions.

We are open to almost any style, whether experimental or more traditionally narrative, but before you submit, it's a good idea to get a sense of the kind of work we publish in the Reading Room. It's free! 

Simultaneous submissions are fine, but please do withdraw your submission immediately if accepted elsewhere.

All submissions must be previously unpublished, whether online or in print.

While we don't have any hard and fast rules on print submission length, keep in mind that the longer the piece, the longer the likely response time. We are one of the few print magazines that allow for long-form works, your not-so-short stories or even novellas, and your patience is appreciated! Keep in mind also that any work above, say, 10k words is likely to be serialized between 2 or more issues
