Paid Submission — Detailed Feedback

Submission Opportunities

This option covers three types of submission:

• Detailed feedback — what you could do with the piece to make it submittable
• Submission for a prize
• A photograph paired with a poem or story meant to be read together — your photo or a friend's

You'll receive a decision and detailed notes from one of our readers within 24–36 hours. Payment details confirmed by return email before we begin reading.

• Submit a link to your work — or attach as a PDF, .doc, or .docx. For paired works, include both pieces together.
• Place your name, handles, and email on the title page, along with if, when, and where your work was previously published.
• Tell us which option you are submitting for — detailed feedback, prize, or paired photograph and text.
• We confirm payment details by return email — $15 via your preferred method.
• We write back to you within 24–36 hours with a decision and detailed feedback.
