PLEASE NOTE:
As of November 2008, we are no longer producing a print version
of 52nd City Magazine. We will be periodically posting/publishing
works on our
new blog. The submission guidelines below still apply.
Submission Guidelines
- Residency: Our magazine showcases work by writers and artists who currently
live in the St. Louis metropolitan area or who have spent
significant time here.
- Biography: Submissions should include a brief bio.
For ideas on length and content, please look at the bios on this
site or in the print edition.
- Contact Information: Include your name, as you wish to
see it published, address, email address and phone number with
your submission.
- Titles: Please title your piece. We are amazed by the
number of submissions we receive without them.
- Poetry: WE DO NOT ACCEPT UNSOLICITED POETRY
SUBMISSIONS.
- Artwork: All artwork must be in digital format at least 300 dpi and at least
6” in its smallest dimension and saved as a jpg.
- Response Time: Please allow 6-8 weeks for a
response--sometimes longer. We all have full-time jobs in addition
to our work on the magazine.
- Usage Rights: By submitting your work, you give 52nd
City the rights to reproduce your work in print, online, or on CD.
Submission Contacts
Please email all submissions (prose, poetry, artwork) and any
