Granta

Submitting your work

Granta accepts submissions of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and photography. They are particularly interested in work that is original, urgent, and well-crafted. For non-fiction, they seek reported pieces, essays, and memoir that demonstrate a strong narrative voice and rigorous research. Low-income non-fiction submissions, as indicated by the sample call, suggest a commitment to accessibility and supporting writers facing financial barriers. Before submitting, read recent issues to understand the magazine's range and tone. Follow their submission guidelines carefully, including word limits and formatting. Simultaneous submissions are generally accepted, but notify them immediately if your work is accepted elsewhere. Response times can be lengthy, so patience is advised. They do not accept submissions by post. For low-income submissions, be prepared to provide documentation if requested.
