Founded in 2015, The Opiate is a quarterly literary magazine dedicated to publishing envelope-pushing work. We accept both print and online submissions. Flash fiction is preferred for online. Often, for poetry, we choose one piece for print and one for online. We accept criticism/essays for publication as well. There is no specific theme or criteria required in terms of the nature of the content, so long as it “moves” us, if you will.
*For those submitting fiction, it is strongly recommended that you read our stance on “said” here.
The Opiate is seeking submissions for its Summer, Vol. 46 issue. Fiction, poetry, excerpts of novels/plays, criticism, non-fiction and creative non-fiction accepted. Please limit fiction/prose submissions to under 15,000 words (and ABOVE 1,500 words) and, if inclined, provide a brief summary of the content.
