Wrong Publishing MATURE CONTENT

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

This project is on indefinite hiatus. Check their site to find out whether this is a submission and/or publication hiatus. (November 2024)

About

Wrong Publishing began with Wrongdoing Magazine, a bi-annual collection of original and detestable lit + art. After four long issues, we're now focusing our energy on bringing new opportunities to writers whose chapbooks are unpublishable/detestable elsewhere. The mission is the same—the scope only longer and thicker and shinier.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for some submissions. They charge fees for tip jar, expedited responses and feedback.

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.
  • For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
