About

To celebrate the upcoming release of the first issue of Unstuck, we’re holding a fee-free contest with some unusual prizes. This is a micro-lit contest; we’ll consider miniature stories, miniature essays, and poems. The contest is open only to our Twitter followers. Theme: Lovemarks. While your submission should respond in some way to this prompt, we encourage you to be imaginative in your interpretation of the theme. Your submission must be broken into exactly twelve “tweets” – i.e., twelve sections of no more than 140 characters each.

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.
