Isele Magazine 27

About

At Isele Magazine we believe that literature and the arts are an integral part of the daily conversations that uplift and/or shape our thinking. We publish writers and artists who hold a mirror to our society, who challenge conventional expectations about ways of being, how to be, and who decides who should be. We seek fresh and dynamic voices. We want to bring our readers the best of new fiction, poetry, essays, interviews, and book reviews. As part of our commitment to fostering a vibrant community, we will publish a bi-monthly web magazine, a guest-curated series, and a seasonal blog that will bring our readers the best of the topical conversations within and outside of our literary spheres.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
