Call for Submissions: Kenyon Review

Our general submission period opens on September 1 and closes on September 30, 2022. In 2023, our magazine will feature two themed issues, one focused on WOMEN’S HEALTH and one on FOOD. We invite work that broadly considers these two themes. There will also be submission calls from guest editors to come; check back in September for more information.

In addition to guest-edited folios and thematic materials, we’ve reserved a significant portion of publication space for work that might be categorized as general submissions.When you submit your work you will have the option to identify it for general consideration or for one of the themed issues.

You may not submit the same piece to multiple categories/themes, but simultaneous submissions to other magazines are permitted.

We consider previously unpublished: 

  • short fiction and essays (up to 7,500 words)
  • flash fiction and essays (up to 3 pieces, up to 1,000 words each; please format and submit as a single document)
  • poetry (up to 6 poems; please format and submit as a single document)
  • plays (up to 30 pages double-spaced)
  • excerpts (up to 30 pages double-spaced) from larger works
