Call for Submissions: Brevity

Brevity publishes well-known and emerging writers working in the extremely brief (750 words or fewer) essay form. We have featured work from Pulitzer prize winners, NEA fellows, Pushcart winners, Best American authors, and writers from India, Egypt, Ireland, Spain, Malaysia, Qatar, and Japan. We have also featured numerous previously-unpublished authors, and take a special joy in helping to launch a new literary career. Over the past year Brevity has averaged 10,000 unique visitors per month.

Authors are paid a $45 honorarium for featured essays and craft essays.

If you would like to read an interview with our founder and editor-in-chief explaining his view of what makes a piece of flash nonfiction successful, you may do so here at River Teeth.

Submissions should be formatted as seen here (single space, no indentation, one extra space between paragraphs) unless alternate formatting is a specific design element of the essay.

Submit your work here.
