General Submission Guidelines

Redivider seeks quality submissions of previously unpublished fiction, literary nonfiction, poetry, and visual art. We accept submissions year-round. We suggest you look at a previous issue before submitting (sample copies are available for $8.00).

As of May 1, 2010, we will accept electronic submissions solely through our online submissions manager. Submissions emailed to our editors will not be considered. To submit, please click here.

We do not acknowledge receipt of submissions. Each submission should include a cover letter that lists the titles of all work included, as well as the author’s name, address, phone number, and e-mail address. Please note in the letter if it is a simultaneous submission, and contact the appropriate editor by email or withdraw through the online submission site immediately upon acceptance elsewhere.

Please send only one submission every six months.

We encourage you to submit your work electronically using our online submission manager; you will get a faster response from us if you do.

Art submissions can be sent as up to six separate attachments or preferably in a single .zip file. We accept only originals or high-quality copies or scans. No slides, please. If you choose to send your work in digital form, either on optical media or as attachments, each piece must be saved as a separate .TIFF file no larger than 6 x 9 inches and at a resolution of 600 dpi for line art and 300 dpi for all others. If your piece is chosen for the cover, you may be contacted for a larger file. Redivider prints in black and white. Color submissions will be considered for the cover, as black-and-white reprints on internal pages, and as color images on the website. We also consider black-and-white images for the cover. Digital submissions which do not adhere to the above guidelines will not be considered. Please query with questions or for alternate submission method.
