Poetry Submissions

Please submit to only one category at a time and wait to hear back before trying us again.

• Please send only one poem at a time and wait to hear back before trying us again.
• Simultaneous submissions welcome. Life is short. Just let us know if your work is accepted elsewhere, so we can update our queue and celebrate your success.
• Send us your previously unpublished work as a .doc, .docx, or .rtf in an easily readable format. For a nontraditional piece, you may opt to submit a .pdf. We care about content, not formatting, but if you’re wondering what we consider readable, 12-point Times New Roman works well.
• Vast Chasm is a paying market. Currently, we are able to offer $50 per published piece, payable via Paypal or Venmo.
• Please email us if you run into any issues while submitting or accessing our content. We believe art should be accessible.
