submission guidelines
3 Blind Elephants is currently accepting submissions for our inaugural issue. We are seeking, first of all, great writing that will inspire and confound readers, in which every word is essential and loved.
We will consider poetry, creative nonfiction, essays, and, most of all, fiction. Preference will be given to pieces that are experimental, concise, and a little weird: an ideal submission might be reminiscent of Borges, Calvino, or Lydia Davis, and is probably under 2000 words—short enough to read on a train commute.
Submission Form »
Please upload Word (.doc), Rich Text Format (.rtf) or Text (.txt) files only. There is a 1MB filesize limit. Viruses and spam will not be published by 3 Blind Elephants, so please don't bother submitting them. Finally, please remember to include contact information with your submission.
