Submissions
Submissions are currently closed.
Please read our mission statement at the top of our home page as well as our current and prior issues to determine if your work would be a good fit for us.
Please send only previously unpublished work, meaning work that has not appeared in print or anywhere on the web (including, but not limited to blogs, personal websites, social media sites, public discussion forums, etc). Simultaneous submissions are considered; however, please notify us immediately if your work is accepted elsewhere.
For fiction, please send one short story or up to three pieces of flash fiction or three prose poems per submission (all in one document). For non-fiction, please submit one story at a time. For poetry, submit up to five poems in a single document. For artwork, send up to eight images of at least 300 dpi as .jpeg files at one time.
The Moving Force Journal will acquire First Rights for accepted work as well as electronic rights to archive the work indefinitely on our website. Although we are primarily an online journal, we also acquire reprint rights should demand and funds allow us to publish a print issue and/or anthology. All other rights revert to the author. There is no compensation at this time.
