Themed Issues
We also accept submissions in the following categories:
- General//Any subject//Year-Round
- Tapes From The Outside//Work in response to current events//Year-Round
- Themed Issues//Work in response to a specific theme determined by a guest editor//Monthly (coming soon)
- Dialogue Submissions//Work in response to a specific piece of music//Every few months
- (Audio)Chapbook Contest//Chapbook-length writing//June-August
Each month (starting in 2020), we will release an issue featuring work in response to a specific theme alongside general issues. A different guest editor will choose each month's theme and curate the work featured in the themed issues. The deadline for each month will be the 15th of the previous month (ex: January 2020's submissions would be due December 15, 2019). Below are the guidelines:
- Send one (1) piece of writing (regardless of genre - unless genre is specified in the theme) that responds to the monthly theme attached as a Word document or PDF file
- Blind submissions ONLY
- You can simultaneously submit to multiple months' themes, but only once in a given month (ex: do not send two submissions on July's theme)
- Send all submissions to goldwalkmagATgmailDOTcom with the "month you are submitting"+"Sub" (all as one word) included somewhere in your subject line (ex: SeptemberSub)
