PALOOKA PRESS SUBMISSIONS

We take great pride in reading every word and giving each chapbook its due attention. We consider manuscripts of all styles and genres and aren't looking for a particular aesthetic. We're willing to give anything a fair chance. Please send your best fiction, poetry, nonfiction, drama, graphic narrative, or hybrid work. Manuscripts should be 25-100 pages, roughly. Each submission comes with a gift: a digital chapbook or digital copy of Palooka.

IF ACCEPTED FOR PUBLICATION

  • A perfect-bound book with a glossy or matte color cover
  • $200 honorarium
  • 20 free copies of your book
  • Your own bio/photo page featured on our website

GUIDELINES

  • Length: 25-100 pages (flexible)
  • Cover Letter: Identify the manuscript as fiction, poetry, nonfiction, drama, graphic, or hybrid.
  • Simultaneous Submissions: Accepted. But please withdraw your manuscript if accepted elsewhere. 
  • It's okay if some of the work has been previously published; proper citations will be made.
