Unsolicited submissions of poetry and short fiction (for our winter 2024 issue) are open as follows:
POETRY: 1st January ‒ 29th February 2024
FICTION: 1st February ‒ 31st March 2024
Southword pays contributors €50 per poem and €300 per short story. We welcome submissions of up to four poems or one short story (of up to 5000 words) per submission period. If your work has been selected from an unsolicited submission and published in Southword before, we ask that you please don’t submit for one year before submitting again – for example, if you were accepted in the last open submission period (2023) it means you need to skip this one (2024) and wait for the next (2025).
