Submission guidelines
As well as following the specific guidelines here, we would encourage everyone to take a look at this excellent article from The Review Review for some general advice on the best way to go about submitting writing to magazines. If anything isn’t clear—or if you have any questions—please do get in touch.
Happy with all these guidelines? Great. Send us your writing, via Submittable, here. The deadline for this call is midnight GMT on April 19th.

First off, take a few minutes to read through some of our back issues. They’re free to read, and this is by far the easiest way to find out whether we might enjoy your kind of writing. If you’re not a fan of reading on screen, you could always pick up a copy of the current edition.
Short stories of up to approximately 3,000 words will be considered, both as original stories and as new translations of foreign language texts. We will consider up to two stories per author per issue, and submission of original and unpublished work in any genre is very welcome. The only essential is that your story makes us want to read on.
We will consider up to three previously unpublished poems in English or new translations from other languages. Visual poetry and other hybrid forms are welcome. Our first consideration is the merit of the poetry, then the quality of the art. There’s a higher burden of proof on the pieces because of this but we’d love to receive some.
Translators should submit the original text, a sub-100 word biographical note for the original author, and a brief statement regarding translation rights. The best place for this would probably be your cover note.
Due to our short reading period, and rapid response time, we do not accept simultaneous submissions.
As the magazine is not-for-profit there is currently no payment for included work, but contributors will be sent a copy of Structo before the magazine hits the streets, with the option of picking up any extra copies at cost. As the magazine grows, subscriptions are being sent to a growing list of agents, publishers, anthologists and reviewers. We submit work to the Pushcart and Forward Poetry Prizes, and continue to support our writers long after publication.
