Submission Guidelines
- Poetry: We like poems that are comprehensible, heartfelt, and honest. A sequence of short poems linked by a common theme would be accepted as well.
- Short fiction: 500-2,000 words.
- Memoir: An interesting, 100%-true episode from your life. 1,000-2,000 words. The emphasis is on episode, as distinct from a whole life story. If you are submitting in this category, please plainly indicate that the item is "Memoir".
- Essays: A short essay on some topic you've given thought to. 500-2,000 words.
- Art: We love illustrations, photos, and comics, but feel free to expand our horizons.
- The Spadina Literary Review is a labour of love and remains free to read and free to submit to. As such, we don't pay for submissions and rely on the generosity of our contributors. We accept submissions on a rolling basis.
- You may use our submission form or email your submissions to spadinaliteraryreview@gmail.com with your name, biography, and the title of the piece.
