How to submit your work, and where to send it!
How to submit your work, and where to send it! In terms of submissions, the cardinal rule is to follow what the literary journal or magazine specifies. It would be rare nowadays to send materials in via ‘snail mail’; virtually all the time one submits via email, through the journal’s website, or – most commonly – via something called Submittable. Submittable is free to join, and it’s easily the most used submission portal on the web. Journals sometimes charge a small fee – usually $3 – to submit, but most don’t. Submittable can be found at: https://manager.submittable.com/login
Where to submit work to Jewish journals: (1) Poetica: http://www.poeticamagazine.com/ (2) Moment: http://www.momentmag.com/ (3) The Jewish Literary Journal: http://jewishliteraryjournal.com/ (4) The Ilanot Review: http://www.ilanotreview.com/ (5) JewishFiction.net
Where to submit work to journals/magazines in general: Here you need to do some research. The most well-known US literary journals include Tin House, Ploughshares, Glimmer Train and, of course, The New Yorker, and these are very tough to crack – but it’s still worth having a go! There are quite a few British journals worth considering, and I recommend: Prole: http://www.prolebooks.co.uk/ The Reader: http://www.thereader.org.uk/magazine.aspx Structo: http://structomagazine.co.uk/ Gold Dust: http://www.golddustmagazine.co.uk/Writers.htm Firewords: http://www.firewords.co.uk/submit/
