Literary Veganism: An Online Journal — Submissions
Overview
Literary Veganism is an online journal dedicated to writing that engages with veganism as a literary and ethical concern. The journal publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, positioning itself at the intersection of creative practice and animal studies, environmental humanities, and food writing. Its editorial scope is defined by a commitment to exploring veganism not merely as a dietary choice but as a lens for examining consumption, embodiment, and interspecies relations. As an online publication, Literary Veganism offers contributors a digital platform for work that might otherwise lack a natural home in mainstream literary magazines. The journal's rolling submissions policy allows for continuous engagement with new writing, without the pressure of fixed reading periods. While the journal does not charge a submission fee, it also does not offer monetary payment; the primary return for contributors is publication and placement within a focused community of writers and readers. The curatorial vision is shaped by a desire to expand the literary vocabulary around veganism, moving beyond polemic or lifestyle content toward work that is formally ambitious and intellectually rigorous. The editors seek writing that treats veganism as a serious subject for art, not as a niche interest. Submissions are evaluated on their literary merit and their capacity to contribute to an ongoing conversation about ethics, identity, and the more-than-human world.
