Submit
Send us your ode to the moon cycles, your ingenious poems based on zodiac signs, your poetic hybrids or pictorial erasures, your magical and healing spells, your translations you're most proud of (and you should be!), your briefest but bravest (non-)fiction, your soothing mixtape lullabies, your can't-keep-our-eyes-off art pieces.
Guidelines
We accept
- Art: up to 5 pieces of photography/paintings/illustrations/mixed media/collages/digital media/whatever you deem visually stimulating. Art pieces that are part of a series have no number limit; we will simply choose the ones we love the best.
- Poetry: up to 5 poems. Be bold and experimental, or be classical and romantic, whatever goes and flows. We adore sonnets, limericks, senryus, prose poems, hybrids, erasures, found poems, spells, astrological poetry. Send them as graphics, with audio or video, or as is.
- Translated poetry: up to 5 original poems with your translations. We want the translations to reflect the pure essence of the originals.
- Flash fiction: up to 3 pieces of no more than 500 words. If you're feeling extra brave, send us some poignant and dreamy dribbles or drabbles. As they say, "brevity is the soul of wit."
- Mixtape: up to 13 songs. Send us a mixtape perfect for the rainy days, for meditative ambiance, for peak experiences, for healing catharsis, for nightdreaming, for passionate dancing.
- Collaboration: no restrictions. We accept collaborative visual art or written word. We treasure collaborations that are harmonious fusions of two brilliant minds.
- More: whatever else you think we—and our readers and community—may enjoy. There's no limit to your imagination, moonchild. Pitch to us!
- Cover letters: aren't necessary, but do shoot us a friendly hello with a little background about yourself. We can't wait to get to know you and your splendorous work!
Current pitch call
While our submissions are closed, we welcome pitches for Moonlogs until September 24, 2021. If you have a particular piece you think is perfect for the Moonchild aesthetic and what Moonlogs stands for, pitch it to us! This does not guarantee reading or acceptance, still we're ecstatic to hear from you! What can you pitch to us?
Right now we are especially leaning toward visual art including collages, erasures, paintings, mixed media, digital art, comic excerpts, among others. We also welcome music including original albums, playlists, music videos, collaborations. We'd love to receive some think pieces such as creative non-fiction, thoughtful essays, analytical reviews, comedic bits, listicles. For poetry we prefer experimental writing, hybrids, visual poems, and collaborations.
PS: spooky and spoopy stuff are also our jam!

Send/Pitch
You can send us your work at moonchildmag@gmail.com. We accept previously published work and simultaneous and multiple submissions. We also welcome returning contributors. At the subject line, please write "Submission: Art Medium, Moonchild Your Name". If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us at the same email or on Instagram.
If you wrote or made something that doesn't quite fit the standard work of art but think that Moonchild Magazine and our readers and community may delight in it, please pitch it to us at our email or on Instagram! When you do, please write "Pitch: Moonchild Your Name" at the subject line.
We look forward to reading/viewing/hearing/tasting (we wish!) your work and will contact you from anywhere between one day to three months after your submission.
