our categories: poetry, prose, creative non-fiction, art

At our luxury literary magazine, we maintain a few key criteria for those interested in creative writing submissions. We ask that you adhere to these submission guidelines as closely as possible to help foster a safe and equitable environment for everyone. Our guidelines remain constant across all issues, ensuring a standard protocol for all contributors. Please see them outlined below.

Hate speech is strictly prohibited. We will not accept any creative writing that endorses racism, religious discrimination, ableism, sexism, homophobia, or any form of hate speech. Should you have a history of such behaviors and/or provide a piece that indicates this, we reserve the right to reject your work in the future. If your submission contains sensitive subjects, please make sure to include appropriate content warnings.

We kindly ask that you do not submit your work via email but only through the designated open submission document linked below. For multilingual submissions, please be sure to include an English translation; depending on its length, we might only publish the translated version.

You may submit up to two pieces in each category we offer (categories can be found above), but no more than that. Poetry and prose should not exceed one thousand words, although if your piece is longer, contact us to discuss a possible exception on a case-by-case basis.

For your safety, please do not include identifying information in your work and refrain from incorporating any defamatory content if referencing individuals. We also prohibit the use of artificial intelligence or generative tools in your submissions, as we highly value your intellectual and creative labor.

We accept previously published work; if so, please provide details about its prior publication. Note that we do not consider removal requests after publication, although you are welcome to request a withdrawal before that point. Simultaneous submissions are welcome; if another literary magazine accepts your work before we do, please inform us—we’d love to congratulate you!

Please understand that submissions reliant on specific visual formatting may pose challenges in accommodating our publication’s format. All poetry, prose, and creative non-fiction must be submitted as a PDF or Google Document, while art submissions should be in PDF, PNG, or JPG format, with all works properly labeled. If you submit more than one piece, kindly send them as individual files. We accept an array of creative works as long as they broadly align with one of our four categories.

Thank you for your collaboration! We eagerly await the opportunity to review your exceptional work.
