Submissions... without borders.
Submit under a theme, where 3/4 is a platform number, a cryptic date, or measurements for unknown delicacies. Surprise us!
With lockdowns across the world, "time" has taken on new meaning, and our theme represents the fracturing of its linearity. It speaks both to prisoners suspended in chaos, and dreamers flirting with the idea of an afterward. Open to interpretation, "3/4” could be a ratio of people or three-quarters of a larger picture with an unknown outcome.
Submissions are now closed for this theme. Check back for Issue 2 guidelines!
The Do's and Don'ts of Submissions
DO submit under the "3/4" theme.
DO submit if you identify as a woman or are part of a marginalized community (a sexual, social, or religious minority).
DO send your work as either solo or collaborative pieces and include any relevant medium that adds to the experience (pictures, music, videos, etc. authored by you or your collab partner).

DO send us previously unpublished material.
DO send us your 60-word author bio and a (recent) photograph.

Submit, submit, submit!
