Always Crashing is looking for submissions of fiction, poetry, collage text, visual collage, video, labyrinths, manifestos, the generically transgressive, and nonfiction (though we prefer not to be told if it’s nonfiction).
We are interested in surfaces and form. We are interested in discontinuity and want to watch you break things. We want to read works that seek something via untruth, fantasy, artificiality, the plastic, deep superficiality, and attention to their own construction. We are interested in work that strikes curious poses; in the “experimental,” not as an avant-garde, but as a furthering of a subterranean literary tradition. We are interested, ultimately, in the aesthetic: the beautiful and the sublime, sure, but also the boring, the dumb, the merely interesting, the zany, the disgusting, the cute—particularly when pushed into strange and unfamiliar territories.
We publish new work online every two weeks, and one print issue per year. You may familiarize yourself with our online edition here, or check out our print issues—including digital versions of our back issues—here.
Submissions may be sent to:
submissions@alwayscrashing.com
Please include your name and the word “SUBMISSION” in the subject line, and some sort of cover letter or friendly note in the email body so we don't think you're a robot.
Please wait to hear back about your submission before submitting additional work. If resubmitting, please send as a new email thread, rather than a reply to your previous submission.
Note that we do not accept submissions sent as links to Google Docs, WeSendIt, or other filesharing platforms. If your submission is too large to send as an email attachment, please query us with a description of the submission beforehand.
