General guidelines:
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. You must notify us immediately upon acceptance elsewhere.
Prose submissions must be under thirty pages, double-spaced, and addressed to the Fiction or Nonfiction Editor. Please send only one submission every six months.
Poetry submissions should contain up to six poems and be addressed to the Poetry Editor. Please send only one submission every six months.
Art submissions should consist of up to six pieces submitted and should be addressed to the Art Editor. 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 e-mail 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.
Our deadlines are July 1 for the Fall issue, and December 1 for the Spring issue.
Redivider pays with two contributor copies of the issue containing your work.
