We take great pride in reading every word and giving each chapbook its due attention. We consider manuscripts of all styles and genres and aren't looking for a particular aesthetic. We give anything a fair chance. Please send your best fiction, poetry, nonfiction, drama, graphic narrative, or hybrid work. Manuscripts should be roughly 25-100 pages. Each submission comes with a digital gift of your choice: a chapbook, a copy of Palooka, or the editor's award-winning novel.

If Accepted for Publication:    

• A perfect-bound book with a glossy or matte color cover
• $200 honorarium
• 20 free copies of your book
• Your own bio/photo page featured on our website

Length: 25-100 pages (flexible).

Cover Letter: Identify the manuscript as fiction, poetry, nonfiction, drama, graphic, or hybrid.

Simultaneous Submissions: Encouraged. Please withdraw your manuscript if accepted elsewhere.

Citations: It's okay if some of the work has been previously published; citations will be included.
