The Rush Magazine — Call for Submissions
Overview
The Rush Magazine is a literary and arts publication that positions itself at the intersection of text and image, seeking work that is urgent, precise, and formally adventurous. This call for submissions is open to practitioners across five disciplines—poetry, microfiction, micro-nonfiction, photography, and video—and reflects the magazine's commitment to brevity and impact. The absence of a submission fee underscores an editorial ethos that prioritizes access and artistic merit over financial barriers. While the magazine's specific curatorial vision for this cycle is not detailed in the provided information, the inclusion of both written and visual media suggests an interest in how narrative and image converse, and how short forms can carry substantial weight. Submitters should consider how their work might engage with the constraints and possibilities of the micro format, whether through lyrical compression, narrative economy, or visual concision. Accepted work will be published in The Rush Magazine, reaching a readership that values contemporary creative practice. The magazine does not charge for submissions, indicating a respect for the artist's time and resources. This opportunity is best suited to those who work with precision and are comfortable with the discipline of brevity.
