See other projects related to this listing.

This project is believed to be defunct. (October 2019)

About

The Unrest is essentially a literary journal that looks at the intersection of the personal and political. We seek to reach out to our readers with what we believe is transcendental art and literature, one that goes beyond just entertaining, one that makes you think. You can harbour any belief system, but remember, the personal is political.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for some submissions. They charge fees for "tip jar" submissions.

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.
