What We Publish

We publish flash fiction, short fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction and artwork. We're open to most genres. We have a few specific guidelines we ask you to follow.

What kind of work we're interested in:

For example, your character might be of a particular faith and casually mentions this in conversation. Or you might be exploring the world of existential questions. Big or small, we want it all!

We welcome work from authors of all faiths or no faith. We ask that your work be respectful of religion and that any negative experiences be written in a tasteful and mature manner.


We're NOT looking for:


If your work requires a content warning, we'd appreciate it if you could put this at the top of your submission.


You can read our editors' bios to find out the kinds of work we'd love to see, but you are most welcome to submit anything outside of this too. If you're not too sure whether your work would be a good fit for us, don't self reject! Submit to us anyway as you never know where your work will take you.


Please note our word count limits for fiction and CNF are the 'sweet spot' of what we want to read; they are not absolute. Keep in mind any work over 5,000 words is unlikely to be accepted.

  1. Submit your work through our online form
  2. Please use a standard font and size with your name on the work.
  3. Please make sure your work is PROOFREAD as much as possible.
  4. You can submit up to 3 pieces of work per issue (we will only publish one per issue). Please check the poetry section for specific requirements.
  5. Accepted file types for written work is: .doc, .docx, .pdf (this just makes it easier for us to read on our devices).
  6. File types for art: .png, .jpeg, .jpg
  7. Simultaneous submissions are acceptable, just let us know if your work has been accepted elsewhere
  8. We accept previously published work (except for poetry). We also champion new writers and artists!
  9. We aim to respond to all submissions with a decision within three months after the submissions period closes. If you have not heard back within this timeframe, please drop us an email.
