• Temporarily stopping the year-round online submissions. Please check back in a few months to submit to mmm-submissions.org and observe the same guidelines as for paper submissions, which are below.

   

  UPDATED GUIDELINES:

• Unpublished fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and art .
• Prose: 4,000 words maximum (roughly 16 pages). We prefer shorter stories.
• Poems: only submit 3-5 poems at a time or 10 page max.
• Sent with a self-addressed, stamped envelope with sufficient return postage for either reply or return or manuscript. Please mark on the return envelope if the SASE is for reply only.

• Simultaneous submissions are acceptable, but we ask that authors contact MMM promptly if a manuscript is accepted elsewhere.
• Please submit poetry to the Poetry Editor, fiction to the Fiction Editor, and nonfiction to the Nonfiction Editor. Addressing your submission to the proper editor will expedite the review of your manuscript.
