Call for Submissions on Theme of "Belonging": Sonder Magazine

Our submission window for Issue VIII will open 1st-28th February.

We are looking for short stories, flash fiction, creative nonfiction, and cover artwork all based on the theme of BELONGING.

We especially encourage work from previously unpublished writers who feel it is their time to be heard.

Sonder Magazine is all about bringing different perspectives together. Everyone is wildly and magically different, yet there is still a universality that draws us all together. We are about reflecting those differences and, ultimately, what it is that brings us together. 

Guidelines

  • We accept one submission per person per category
  • Only pieces submitted through the relevant entry form below will be considered
  • All submissions should be sent in .doc, .docx or.odt format
  • We accept simultaneous submissions but please let us know immediately if your piece is accepted elsewhere
