Call for Submissions: Lockjaw Magazine

Lockjaw Magazine is an online journal publishing experimental and literary poetry and prose, as well as visual art and multimedia projects. We’re open for submissions for our sixth issue from May 1-May 31, 2019.

Full Submission Guidelines (PLEASE READ THEM)

We are primarily interested in reading work from marginalized writers (gender and sexual minority writers, writers of color, immigrant writers, low-income writers, and others).

We offer personalized feedback to any submitter who opts to receive it. You must request personalized feedback when you send in your submission. If you don’t opt in up front, we will send you a standard response should we end up declining your work.

Please don’t give us a detailed cover letter. “Here it is, thanks for your time” is just fine!

We do not publish nonfiction. A few of you try every time. We’ll send it right back (sorry, nonfiction!)

We generally take three to ten weeks to respond. We offer one-week expedited responses throughout our reading period if you provide proof of donation to a charitable organization (we love LGBTQ+ orgs, RAINN, RAICES, your local public library, and groups promoting literacy access, among others).

We pay $10 to each contributor upon publication. It’s not much, but it’s what we’ve got.

Please send all submissions to:

submissionsATlockjawmagazineDOTcom (Change AT to @ and DOT to . )
