Types of Submissions Accepted
Fiction
No specific limitations
Nonfiction
Unfortunately, we’re not able to read draft nonfiction submissions. We work on essays often over the course of many months and several drafts, and we like to begin with a two- to four-paragraph pitch.
Poetry
Max pieces: 6
Art
No specific limitations
Review
1-4 sentence book/movie/TV/art reviews, or "Mentions" The best Mentions have a clear, narrow angle, make a few jokes, and land on a punchy kicker.
