Stillwater Story House — Submissions

Overview
Stillwater Story House operates as a literary magazine with a rolling submissions policy, indicating an ongoing openness to new work rather than a time-bound competition. The absence of a stated deadline suggests a continuous reading period, allowing writers to submit at any time. This model often reflects a commitment to discovering voices on their own timelines, rather than imposing artificial urgency. The magazine publishes fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, positioning itself within the tradition of general-interest literary journals that value craft and narrative force across genres. While the organization's specific editorial vision is not detailed in the provided information, the breadth of accepted genres implies a catholic taste—one that may favor writing that is formally accomplished and emotionally resonant, regardless of category. No fee is listed, and no prize or payment is specified. Writers should note that the absence of a fee does not guarantee a fee-free submission process; it simply means the information is not provided. Similarly, the lack of a prize or honorarium suggests that publication itself may be the primary reward, a common arrangement in the literary magazine ecosystem. The magazine's location is unspecified, further emphasizing its focus on the work rather than geographic identity.
