Apofenie Magazine

About

Apofenie is an online literary magazine founded in 2017. Although Central and Eastern European literature has come to represent the backbone of our platform — we were even named one of the 10 best English-language magazines from across Eastern Europe and Central Asia by The Calvert Journal—writers and translators from across the globe are welcomed to submit their work, as long as what they have to submit is compelling. We welcome interviews, book reviews, fiction, non-fiction, poetry and art.

Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to those who are not Russian (during wartime).

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.
