There are presently no open calls for submissions.
We welcome your submissions!
(See below for guidelines and then even further below for the "Submit" buttons for each type of contribution.)
PLEASE SUBMIT ONLY ONCE PER READING PERIOD.
All submissions will be considered for the print edition or TSR Online.
If you would like to support the work we do at TSR, please purchase a subscription. If you are submitting work, a subscription entitles you to one free submission per reading period.
Single Issue Subscription: $18
1-Year Subscription (2 issues): $29
PAY RATES
We are proud to pay our contributors. For poetry, prose, and illustrations, the honorarium is between $75 and $300.
Alas, we are unable to pay current or former (past 3 years) employees/students of any CUNY or SUNY institution.
READING PERIODS
September 15 – October 15
January 15 – February 15
