LONESOME PRESS is community-driven and interdisciplinary. We seek work from all artists, writers, thinkers, regardless of publication or exhibition history. We wish to be moved, surprised, inspired. We are all artists. 

We accept submissions of previously unpublished work across a wide range of media, including but not limited to: 

  • literature
  • poetry
  • fiction
  • flash fiction
  • creative non-fiction

Mixed Media:

  • fine art
  • photography
  • video
  • music
  • collage

We recommend engaging with our publication, whether via our website, our newsletter, or our inaugural print volume prior to submitting. Every submission is individually reviewed by the editors. Responses are sent on a rolling basis. 

RIGHTS STATEMENT

We request the right to publish first and to electronically archive the work. In addition, the work may appear in future promotional materials for LONESOME PRESS. Upon publication, all rights will revert back to the contributor. We ask that LONESOME PRESS be acknowledged as the original publisher in any future republication.

$25.00

For long lead print submissions. Upload a cover letter and submission of up to five poems (10 pages only 1 poem per page) of poetry, 2000 words (prose), 10 artworks (art), or 3 songs (music) in consideration for publication in our future issue.

Considering submissions year round is central to the our mission. The reading fee helps us keep the portal open.
