Call for Submissions: Marrow Magazine

We accept submissions year-round. Please allow up to four months for us to respond, as currently we are a four-woman team. If you haven’t heard back from us within five months, send a follow-up email to:

 readmarrow@gmail.com 

Important: All submissions, upon successful entry, receive an automated confirmation email. Please remember to add us to your trusted contacts and check your spam folders for this confirmation email from us, along with other communications. Sometimes we get lost. 🙁

We publish digital and (forthcoming) print issues quarterly, with new pieces releasing each week. Our official issues include all pieces published that quarter. If you’d like to submit in a genre, we accept fiction and nonfiction of up to 7,500 words or 3 poems at a time. If you prefer to submit genreless or hybrid work, you can let us know in your email; we can publish with or without classification.

To submit, please use our submission form. Use whatever font you like as long as it’s legible, and please keep any personal details off of the submission so we can read it anonymously. If your piece has identifying information (including anywhere in the upload file name or submission title), we will ask you to resubmit. Let us know if you’d like us to consider your submission with or without genre.

Please wait until you hear from us to submit again. If we publish your piece, please wait one (1) year from the date of publication of the piece before submitting again. For example, if you are published on May 1, 2023, please do not submit again until May 1, 2024.

We do not consider previously published work, but simultaneous submissions are entirely welcome. Please let us know if your submission is simultaneous and let us know as soon as you can if it’s accepted elsewhere. If we do accept your work, we humbly ask that you withdraw it from consideration elsewhere. All rights revert back to the writer upon publication.

Currently, we are not a paying market, though we hope to be in the future. The editors of this magazine also do not make any money from its operation – it’s our passion project. We do not charge submission fees or earn ad revenue, and all expenses are paid out of our own pockets. We volunteer our time because we love this work and we’re proud of our publication.

Submit your work here.
