Call for Submissions: The Gateway Review

The Gateway Review publishes surrealist, fabulist, and magic realist fiction and poetry, as well as nonfiction about the art of writing the same. We are particularly interested in work by LGBTQ+ writers, Black writers, other writers of color, and any writer from a historically marginalized, minoritized group.

The Gateway Review: A Journal of Magical Realism is currently OPEN for submissions in all categories!

The Gateway Review is published annually in December/January. We have two options for submissions, both of which will be open from July 15 through September 15.

Regular Submissions: For no fee, writers may submit one piece of fiction between 1,000 and 4,000 words; one poem of no more than 40 lines; or one piece of nonfiction of up to 1000 words. We usually respond to these submissions in November or December, after the close of our reading period.

Expedited Submissions: For a $3.00 fee, writers can submit any of the materials outlined in the Regular Submissions category and receive a response in thirty days or less.

We accept submissions through our Submittable site only; we do not accept email submissions, and any such submissions will be deleted unread.

Currently, we wish to feature writers new to our journal, so if your work has been published with us in the past, please refrain from the time being from submitting to us. This does not include writers whose work we have unfortunately had to pass on.

Contributors from the United States will receive one contributor copy of the issue in which their work appears. At this time, we will also offer one writer per issue an “Editor’s Choice” award of $15 (USD).

Due to funding restrictions, we can no longer offer contributor copies to international contributors (though we still happily consider work from around the world).

COVER ART

When submitting cover art, please submit only one piece per reading period.
