Submissions are open!
Ever get the feeling someone’s secretly trying to suck out your brains? Are you living in an unscripted version of The Walking Dead wondering who to trust as the world you thought you knew shifts slowly but surely into nightmare? No worries—you’ll survive! Aji Magazine’s fall 2019 theme is the zombie apocalypse, and—you’re invited! Submissions welcome on this or on any subject until we’ve accepted enough high quality work to fill the fall 2019 issue.

General Guidelines & Information
In 2016, Aji published the work of about 15% of the writers and artists who submitted to us. Editorial decisions involve not only quality (please edit and finely tune your work before submitting for serious review) but also diversity in terms of published works and contributors. On average, about half of the work in any issue relates to the advertised theme.
Follow our guidelines for poems, stories, essays, bios and photos in good faith, and in turn we promise each submission will receive an attentive review and a response within ten weeks, often much sooner.
We are a small staff. As our submissions increase (that’s good—thank you!) our ability to make exceptions diminishes.
We consider only previously unpublished work. Work that has appeared for general reading online has been published already, and so should not be submitted for publication in Aji.
If your submission is selected for publication, you will be notified via email. Aji requires a brief bio (40-60 words) and a photo of you to accompany your published work. We will publish one link submitted with the bio. Once we accept your piece, you must withdraw it from consideration elsewhere immediately.
Simultaneous submissions are accepted. Please notify us as soon as possible in the happy event (too bad for us!) that your piece has been accepted elsewhere.
Aji will retain first North American serial rights to all material we publish. However, we will gladly allow republishing—just ask!
