We accept previously unpublished and polished prose up to 8,000 words year round, unless announced otherwise. We are always looking for tightly woven short works under 2,000 words and short-shorts around 500 words. No multiple submissions but simultaneous is fine as long as you withdraw the submission asap through the submissions system should it place elsewhere.
Note: We consider work that has appeared in print, online magazines, public forums, and public access blogs as being published. Rarely do we accept anything already published and then only by solicitation. Once the piece is published in Eckleburg, the author is welcome to re-publish the work anywhere and everywhere. In these cases, we ask that the original publication be credited each time to Eckleburg.
We accept polished creative nonfiction/essays up to 8,000 words year round, unless announced otherwise. Preferences veer toward essays under 1500 words with a creative nonfiction and/or arts and culture focus. If you wish to include a bio, keep it short, under 200 words.
