NOW ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS FOR ISSUE 2. OPEN UNTIL APRIL 28, 2025



Poetry


We are biased towards vastness. We acknowledge the agitator, the comic healer, the mind in transit. Authors we love include Ariana Reines, Ishion Hutchinson, John Keene and Phoebe Giannisi. Please submit up to five poems. 


Fiction


Accepting short stories or novel excerpts under 10,000 words. We’re looking for writing with ‘skin in the game’, earned humor, deadly seriousness, and words we could have never expected.


Nonfiction


Work which breaks beyond historically established genres, academic disciplines, and contemporary stylistic conventions. We especially welcome avant-garde theory, labyrinthine auto-criticism, epistolary communications, modern sickroom and dream journals, and collated notes.


Translation


We are eager to read translations from writers and translators across genres, particularly those that play with the boundaries of translation.  New translations of old works and new (including unpublished original writing) are welcome. We aim to spotlight translations in forthcoming issues.


Submitting


Submission by email to psychopompliterary@gmail.com. Use the following format in the subject line: genre_title. Please notify us if you place your submission elsewhere.
