Themed Issues
Info & Guidelines
Each month, 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. The deadline for each month will be the 15th of the previous month (ex: January 2020's submissions would be due December 15, 2019).
Please follow these guidelines specifically. All submissions should receive an automatic email reply to confirm that your submission made it to the right place. If you do not receive this automatic email, please double-check your submission (especially the subject line) and resubmit as necessary
- 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
- Do NOT submit more than once to a given month, but feel free to submit to multiple months simultaneously
- Send all submissions to goldwalkmagATgmailDOTcom with the subject line that appears within your chosen theme's description (please do NOT write anything else in the subject line as some submissions are getting misfiled)
- Please address the guest editor by name in your cover letter as this will help us organize any misplaced submissions (and it's just nice!)
Golden Walkman seeks and will prioritize work from underrepresented voices. If you belong to a group that is underrepresented, please put UnderRep + MONTHSub (ex: UnderRepAugustSub) as your subject line
