About the magazine

TIMBER is a literary and arts journal that has established itself as a discerning platform for innovative writing and visual art. Founded with a commitment to showcasing work that challenges conventional boundaries, the journal publishes poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and hybrid forms, alongside visual art that engages with textual and material experimentation. Its editorial vision is rooted in a belief that rigorous, risk-taking work can coexist with accessibility, making each issue a considered assembly of voices that might otherwise remain on the margins of mainstream publishing.

Submitting your work

Reading periodOpen now

Before submitting, read at least one full issue to understand the journal's aesthetic range and editorial sensibilities. TIMBER favors work that demonstrates a clear awareness of form and a willingness to take risks, but it also values coherence and finish. Follow the submission guidelines precisely: include a brief cover letter with your background and any relevant context for the work, and ensure your submission is free of typographical errors. Simultaneous submissions are typically accepted, but notify the editors promptly if your work is placed elsewhere. Response times can vary, so patience is advised; do not query before the stated reading period has elapsed.
