Inlandia: A Literary Journey

Submitting your work

Writers should familiarize themselves with the journal's aesthetic by reading recent issues, which often feature work with a strong sense of place, character, and emotional resonance. Submissions are typically open for poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction, with occasional themed calls such as flash fiction. Follow the guidelines on the website carefully, including word limits and formatting. Simultaneous submissions are generally accepted, but notify promptly if your work is placed elsewhere. Response times vary, so patience is advised. The editors value clarity, originality, and voices that reflect diverse experiences.

Please be sure to read all guidelines. If you are not a teenager, do not submit to the spring all-teen issue. Anyone may submit for the consideration for the fall issue. All genres accepted, including art, poetry, nonfiction and fiction of all stripes. Watch the website for occasional special guest-edited issues, like one in 2023 dedicated to libraries and librarians.
