Submission GuidelinesVallum magazine is interested in poetry, prose poems, concrete poems, essays, interviews and reviews on poetry. Length of submissions:
(approximate guidelines - above may vary) Vallum is interested in work that is original and previously unpublished. Vallum acquires First North American Serial Rights. We are looking for poetry that's fresh and edgy, something that reflects contemporary experience and is also well-crafted. Open to most styles - experimental and traditional. (Usually, issues are put together with an underlying theme in mind, so not all poetry can be accepted, even if it is genius!) No unsolicited chapbook manuscripts. No simultaneous submissions. Poets may send books for review consideration. Essay and review submissions must follow North American, MLA Style guidelines. Artwork can be colour and/or black and white. Colour is preferred for covers; black and white preferred to be featured inside magazine, but will consider colour. If you are interested in writing an article or conducting an interview for Vallum, please send us a query letter by mail or through the online submission engine and we will get back to you. Vallum is published twice a year. If you require a written reply, please include a SASE with sufficient Canadian postage, or an International Reply Coupon.
