Call for Submissions: The Hooghly Review

Submission Call for The Hooghly Review, Issue 5 (Oct/Nov 2026)

THIS CALL IS UNTHEMED. 

Poetry Deadline: August 15, 2026

Prose, Play/Script, Art, Photography: August 31, 2026 

Your work should be literary, but you can put in elements from any genre. We are open to eclectic work, and we like surprises.

But no hate speech, no preaching, no proselytising, no gratuitous violence and no pornography.

By submitting to us, you confirm that your work is original, previously unpublished, plagiarism-free, and AI-free.

Simultaneous submissions are fine but let us know promptly once your piece is accepted elsewhere. We also expect you to let other venues know if we pick up your work before they do and you accept publication with us.

No reprints. Work shared exclusively on social media or personal blogs/websites (including Medium, Substack, etc.) is considered previously published and is not eligible for submission.

No multiple submissions or resubmissions.

Send no bios. Biographies will be requested upon acceptance.

If accepted, do not ask us to wait until you have heard from another magazine, do not withdraw your work(s) once you accept publication with us, and do not ask us to switch the work(s) with one or more of your other works.

We neither charge for submissions nor pay our contributors. But once you publish with us, you are part of our extended family, that is, we will continue promoting you on social media and would be happy to write testimonials, blurbs, reference letters, etc. for you, if requested.
