General

Mimesis accepts submissions of poetry and poetry-related articles/reviews/interviews. We also accept black and white artwork for inclusion in the journal's pages, and full-colour coverart (but our system differs from that of other journals, so please read ahead).

We only accept electronic submissions, via email. Write your full name in the subject line of the email with the title of your piece, and the genre (poem/review/etc). Do not send a biographical note. This will be solicited from you in the event that your work is chosen. All submissions must be original and unpublished. Online workshops and personal blogs do not count as prior publication. If your work is published you will receive a copy of the journal as payment. We consider simultaneous submissions when noted.

Our average response time is between 1 and 3 months.

 

Poetry

Send 4 to 6 poems to poetry@mimesispoetry.com in a single Microsoft Word attachment (DOC / RTF).

 

 

Poetry-related prose (non-fiction)

Send 1 short piece to Mark Yoxon as a Microsoft Word attachment (DOC / RTF).

 

 

Artwork

Mimesis works on a system of taking on panels of illustrators for issues at a time. Please send sample work to Weihui Lu in high resolution JPG, PDF or TIFF format. She will then pick illustrators to do poem-specific artwork for the upcoming issue.

 

 

Please Do Not

Use more than one attached document for written work.

Send us a link to your work.

Submit more than once per issue.
