General Guidelines

– Up to 5 poems

– File Type: PDF, Word, Text file

– Simultaneous Submissions (please withdraw your piece if it is being published elsewhere)

– Multiple Submissions (see specific submission limits below)

– No previously published stories (in print or online). Self-published is fine.

– No genre fiction. There are places for genre fiction. One of those places is not here.

– Do not put your name anywhere in the document or filename.

– We read submissions blind. What We Want If we like your work, we will ask for online and/or serial publication rights.

– Flash Fiction Submissions Allowed Per Entry: 3 What is Flash? Nobody knows for sure. Flash is brilliant. Flash is short. Flash doesn’t have time to mess around. Flash can surprise. Flash can pulverize. Do whatever you want but make sure you make it count and make it short. Short fiction under 1000 words is the general rule for flash fiction.
