Poet’s Press — Submissions

Overview
Poet’s Press operates as a literary magazine with an open, rolling submissions policy, extending a standing invitation to writers of fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. The absence of a fixed deadline signals an editorial posture that values the work itself over the pressures of a submission calendar, allowing writers to present material when it is ready rather than when a window demands. The magazine’s disciplinary focus is literature, and its genre scope is deliberately broad: fiction, poetry, and nonfiction are all considered. This triangulation suggests a curatorial interest in the full range of literary practice, without privileging one form over another. For the submitting writer, the opportunity is a straightforward one: placement in a literary magazine that positions itself as a home for serious writing across genres. Because the call is rolling, there is no external urgency imposed by a deadline. The editorial decision rests entirely on the quality and fit of the submitted work. Writers should approach the submission as they would any literary magazine: with an understanding that the editors are reading for writing that is accomplished, distinctive, and fully realized within its chosen form.
