Poetries in English Magazine is anti-conformity. We publish the best, most intriguing, most well-crafted literature and art today, regardless of form or content.

We are a paying market. We pay a small honorarium to each contributor for general submissions.

The inaugural Louise Glück Prize for Best Poem or Prose is now open. The winner will receive a $1,000 cash award and publication in Poetries in English Magazine. Non-winning entries will also be considered for regular publication.

What distinguishes Poetries in English from other prestigious literary journals is our iconoclastic approach to art and literatures in English. We are proud to be one of the most daring literary magazines in publishing today. Each issue is unafraid, bold, but cerebral.

Their submission guidelines are a bit more precise with clear number of pieecs/pages.

For the first time, Permeable Barrier is opening submissions for physical publication of full length manuscripts. Submissions will be read by JD Howse, Cat Chong, and Al Anderson, and successful submissions will be published by Permeable Barrier in 2027.

Submissions will be open from July 1st to September 30th 2026. Send your manuscript along with a brief covering letter and bio to permeablebarrier (at) outlook (dot) com. They hope to get back to you in early 2027. There is no submission fee, however they do ask that you purchase one of our physical books before submitting to acquaint yourself with the kind of work we’re interested in. 

Permeable Barrier is not prescriptive about the kind of work that interests them, but all three editors are excited by work that pushes boundaries, asks difficult questions, and rejects easy categorisation. They’re primarily looking for submissions of poetry collections, but we view poetry in very fluid terms, and they’re are equally interested in seeing hybrid and interdisciplinary texts. If there are any particular considerations of page size or formatting you'd like the editors to be aware of please indicate this in your cover letter. They have no specific word or page count in mind but roughly speaking we consider 'full length' to be above 60 pages and printing costs become a consideration for at around 200 pages. Please note Permeable Barrier has no interest in work that uses generative AI in any way.

Arc Canada accepts unsolicited submissions from poets at all stages of their writing careers.
