Beeswax Magazine
publishes fiction, poetry, nonfiction and visual art, but
we are open to cross-genre and/or unclassifiable work, too.
Novel excerpts are fine as long as they can stand alone as
complete pieces. Please read all policies and guidelines
before sending us your work.
POLICIES
• Simultaneous
submissions are fine, but please let us know in your cover
letter and promptly notify us if a piece is accepted elsewhere.
• While
sending several poems or shorter prose pieces in a single
submission is encouraged, we do not accept multiple submissions
at the same time; please wait for our response before sending
a new submission.
• Please
allow up to 12 weeks for us to respond to your submission.
If it has been longer than 12 weeks, feel free to send us
an email requesting a submission status.
GUIDELINES
• Fiction and prose entries must be typed and double-spaced;
please do not exceed 25 pages (approx. 7000 words). Poetry
entries must be typed; please do not exceed 10 pages.
• Visual
artists -- be advised that Beeswax rarely publishes in color;
our preferred medium is black and white/grayscale. We love
all kinds of art, from photography to comic books and beyond,
so if you have something visual, send it our way. We also
love work that combines text and art, and we are absolutely
all-for artist collaboration; we would be happy to consider
your collaborative work.
• Cover
letters should be brief and give us an idea of who you are
and what kind of work you do/have done. Please include your
phone number, email and mailing address in your cover letter.
• Beeswax
does not currently offer payment for publication. However,
writers and artists published in Beeswax will receive two
complimentary copies of the issue in which they appear.
There are
