The Bridge Editions

A project of ManicWorld Magazine (see other related projects).

Fledgling Listing: This project is new and has been listed with us for less than six months.

About

There’s nothing like collaboration and we absolutely excel at it.

The Bridge Editions is a new series by ManicWorld Magazine, in which each edition is made in collaboration with another literary magazine with a single open call and submissions read by editors on both sides.

This will be published as a special edition in print and digital formats under the name The Bridge Editions.

There isn’t a set theme for this since what we are looking for is work that stays true to what both magazines offer, which is the best in original fiction, poetry and creative blends between these two. The series does take its name from bridges though, so if you feel inspired by this, we’d love to read how you spin that on the page metaphorically or literally.

Submission Caps: They may close to submissions early if they reach their quota.

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.
