Sinking City is based out of Miami, where rising sea levels threaten the future of a diverse, multicultural community. Our online literary journal is published semi-annually by MFA students at the University of Miami.
1. Please limit your submission to five poems.
2. We accept .doc, .docx, and .pdf files.
3. Simultaneous submissions are fine, just be sure to note it in your cover letter and let us know if your piece is accepted elsewhere. (And congrats, btw!)
4. And nothing previously published, either.
Phew! Now that that’s out of the way, submit away! We’ll let you know our decision within twelve weeks.
We encourage submissions of a wide variety of subversive work. While we publish work on any theme or topic, we are especially interested in work focused on our changing, at-risk environment. We are especially interested in bi- or multilingual writing. We also consider pieces written in Spanish.
