About

3 members set this magazine as a Favorite.

Founded in January 2023 with the ambitions to flourish an all-inclusive space for youth writers and artists, The Malu Zine is a youth-led initiative by Seohyun Ryu and other international writers. The Malu Zine strives to foster a space that encourages writing from all affinity groups, in immaculate digital issues, workshops, and contests.

“Malu”(마루) means the tops of the mountains and/or the tips of the waves in pure Korean. We strive to help artists all around the world to break boxes. You make the rules for your own writing. Share true creativity. We are here to support you to go beyond the words, go beyond Malu.

We love vibrant work. We want it all, and we love to see it. Make us cry, make us laugh. Make us scream. We can't wait to see it. Submit your work to our literary magazine, and become a part of a community full of astonishing artists!

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.
