We publish our print issue biannually, and submissions are generally open for our spring/summer issue in February-March and our autumn/winter issue in July-August.

We also aim to have miscellaneous submission opportunities such as contests/prizes, interviews, and more throughout the year.

All submission calls will be regularly updated here, and we recommend you follow us on social media or subscribe to our newsletter to be notified for our news and opportunities!

Throughout the year, typically before submission calls or after publishing the previous issue, we will open applications for various team members depending on our needs.

You may follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter to receive news for opportunities.

If you would like to join our team while applications are closed, feel free to contact us.

Please note that all team members operate on a volunteer basis, but we do offer benefits such as discounted print issues, professional development opportunities, industry resources, and more.

We are currently based in Chicago, Illinois, USA, where we host issue launch events, readings, writing workshops, and more. We are currently looking into expanding into other cities around the USA and abroad to host other in-person events.

We also host virtual events! Anyone in the world may attend our online writing workshops, readings, open mics, and more.

Make sure to follow us on social media or subscribe to our newsletter for updates on events.

If you have suggestions for a particular event you would like to see from us, feel free to contact us.

We may accept returns on physical issues within seven days of delivery, but only on orders within the USA. If you need to request a return or exchange, contact us here.

E-book orders are non-refundable.

Your support means the world to us—we are a small, independent publication and thus rely on community contributions to keep the tiger alive.

We take donations via Ko-Fi. Purchasing our issues is also a great way to support the magazine, and you get something to show for it too!

Your support helps us with Squarespace fees, website URL hosting, book printing and shipping, in-person event hosting costs, and more.
