Submissions will be read on a rolling basis for each issue.Submitters of this lit mag should be 18 or older because of the inclusion of NSFW works.There is no technical word limit, but we do ask you keep it to one piece for any long fiction, creative nonfiction, or article pieces. If you write War and Peace 2, electric Boogaloo, we will probably reject it, but write your little hearts out, we can't wait to read it.There is also a three piece max for short stories and a five piece max for poems, artworks, photos, and hybrid works. We are are a little team right now. (I.e. It's only me and I want to be able to read all of your amazing works.)If you don't know if your piece fits, like a soundscape or weird piece of art or whatever other fun thing, It does. We will find a way to make it work, if it's cool enough and we want it in the magazine. We'll find a way.We encourage previous submissions and simultaneous submissions. On the submissions page, there is a part for you to fill out where it's been published before so we can call out the amazing lit mags who published it. If it gets submitted somewhere else, shoot us an email and we will congratulate you and update your form.If your piece needs to be pulled for any reason, just reach out and we will do it no questions asked.No AI writing or art of any kind will be allowed. We don't need robots doing our jobs. Now, if you write an awesome science fiction about it, we will probably publish it, but if you get a robot to write it, then that's just mean.There are no formatting requirements on any of this. Do you, babes.PULP does not want work that is racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, or xenophobic. We will publish work that makes a comment on these topics if it displays these in a negative light and brings forth the flaws in the thinking, but any kind of hateful speech outright is not allowed. When a piece displays that commentary, a trigger warning will be present at the beginning.

Want to contribute to every issue? Edit some pieces? Just draw some cover art? You can join PULP and hang out with the weirdos at the back of the class.All positions are volunteer and unpaid. We have no money, as this place is ran by a gen z kid who is currently contemplating their 200,000 dollar art degree and other young adults who make poor financial decisions. We are living off of hope and ramen noodles in this house.Applications are read on a rolling basis.STAFF INFORMATION HERE
