Tips From the Editor

We do not charge submission fees, and we pay our contributors. We are open to all forms of prose, poetry, art, and photography but are particularly interested in the eccentric, lyrical, unique, off-beat, and unexpected. We love to be surprised by something we’ve never seen before. Please read our submission guidelines carefully and send us work you love.
