Want to be featured in our next edition?
Guidelines
Prose
We publish short fiction, flash, and non-fiction. We are especially keen on reading flash (200 to 1000 words) and prose poetry pieces. Please send unpublished work no longer than 6,000 words in a double spaced 12-point font. All works should be attached in a single .DOC/.DOCX file
Poetry
We publish poetry of all types, but we especially love to see poetry that takes risks, including prose, erasure, vispo, concrete poetry, experimental and hybrid work. Please send 5 maximum unpublished poems in a single .DOC/.DOCX file with one poem per page (five pages max).
Cover Art
Some issues of Inkfish are accompanied by cover artwork and illustrations, as well as animated gifs. To get a sense of of general aesthetic and preferred colour scheme, have a look at the artwork already visible on the site. To submit, please send 1-3 high resolution jpegs of your work.
Simultaneous Submissions
Simultaneous submissions are encouraged. If your work is accepted elsewhere, we just ask that you let us know immediately through email.
Rights
We require First UK Serial Rights. Following publication, all rights revert to the author, but we ask that Inkfish is credited in subsequent reprints. In addition, we reserve the right to edit submissions in accordance with the rules of our style guide.
Payment
Whilst we would love to be able to pay our writers and artists, as an indie mag volunteering our time, we are not currently in position to do so, though we hope to be able to in the near future!
