Artist/Writer Guidelines

Pilgrimage welcomes previously unpublished creative nonfiction, fiction, translation, and poetry year-round via Submittable during our open calls. We also feature one visual artist per issue, with full color artwork on the covers and black and white artwork in the interior. Send what you think might fit, regardless of whether or not it matches an upcoming themed issue.

Simultaneous submissions are accepted, provided you notify us if the work is published elsewhere. Our response time is approximately 8-12 weeks after the closing of an issue’s theme. Each prose submission should have a 6000 word limit. Please send up to six poems per submission.

Online submissions are free. For snail mail submissions, please include an SASE for reply only. Unused manuscripts will be recycled.
