SUBMISSIONS
Thank you for sharing your work with Clever Fox! Please read the following submission guidelines before submitting any work. For each edition of the magazine, we will try to accept around 5 pieces per genre - approximately 20 pieces total. All pieces will be read and reviewed by our editing team, and responses will be sent within a 2-6 months or so of your submission date.
SOME THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
- We will NOT accept work that supports or upholds racism, homophobia/transphobia, and/or abuse of any kind. This should go without saying, and is not up for negotiation.
- Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Submit your work when you feel ready to!
- You may submit a piece for more than one genre, but please know that only one genre type might be accepted (ex: if you submit an art piece and a non-fiction piece, only one of these might be accepted).
- We ask that you do not submit any fan-fiction or writing that closely mirrors popular works.
- We will not accept works previously rejected by Clever Fox, even if they are revised.
- If your work makes reference to content that may be triggering, please include a trigger/content warning ahead of your piece.
GENERAL SUBMISSION INFORMATION & GUIDELINES
- When submitting your piece, please include your name, email, a short description of your piece, and a brief biography along with you submission.
- Please submit your piece in the form of a Word document or a PDF. Do not send submissions in the body of the email. For art piece submissions, see guidelines below.
- Simultaneous submissions ARE allowed, as well as previously published works, so long as that publication doesn't still retain rights.
