Jarnal is a literary journal publishing poetry, short fiction, and creative nonfiction. We exist to amplify the voices of exceptionally talented writers, both emerging and established. We’re excited by work that observes the rules of traditional literature, and equally intrigued by authors who write outside the lines.

Submit to Jarnal

Poetry or prose, classical or quirky - we’re looking for work that makes us feel deeply and think differently. We’re hungry for fresh language, resonant images, and compelling narrative. Send us your stuff!

The details:

Poetry: Send up to three poems for consideration. Length and format are up to you, but remember to clearly indicate stanza breaks if a poem extends beyond one page.

Prose: Submit one piece between 1,000 and 5,000 words. We will accept works of fiction or creative non-fiction.
