Here, at Blue Daisies, we follow the annual issue system in November‒December.

We’re currently OPEN for submissions of poetry & prose!

★☆ submission guidelines

âž³ The submissions are open for Issue III: 3024 from 10 November to 15 December. The theme is City-Pop: endless possibilities of youth in the reflective rainy streets, cassette tapes, jeans sitting on waistlines, plastic love, purple sunset fading into futuristic citylights. Find the inspiration board for this theme here.

​​

âž³ There is no word limit for poetry, but we prefer it not to be too long. The word limit for prose is 3000 words. The format of the document should be in .DOCX and .DOC.

 

âž³ When submitting a piece, please follow the format of saving the title of the document as  name â€’ genre â€’ name of the piece. Example: Rosie‒Poetry‒Cherry love. The subject line should contain the issue name you’re submitting for.

​

âž³ Please include content warnings on pieces that might have triggering content or themes such as sexual assault or violence, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, etc. Submissions containing any racist, transphobic, homophobic, misogynistic or plagiarised text will not be entertained.

​

âž³ We do not accept previously published pieces, but you can send in simultaneous submissions and just inform us if you get selected somewhere else.

 

​➳ You can submit up to three pieces in poetry or prose, but kindly do attach them in separate documents. Make sure to attach a short bio of 100 words in third person in the body of your mail as well as your pronouns at the top of your bio. All the submissions are to be mailed to us on bluedaisiesjournal@gmail.com in a single mail.

​

âž³ In case you’re published with us, we ask for you to list Blue Daisies as a previous publisher, and do not ask for any rights to your work.

Happy Submitting!
