About

CLJ publishes high-quality poetry and prose from American and international established and emerging authors. Though CLJ is primarily an online publication, we print yearly anthologies. CLJ's aesthetic leans toward the surreal or slipstream. We enjoy magic realism, surrealism, complex characters, feminism, reinvention of mythology and folklore, oddities, writing focused on culture and heritage, detail and beauty. Caper holds contests, literary events and nominates for major prizes. We are very selective but open-minded.

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.
