LIT eZINE is a literary e-magazine that publishes poetry, stories and articles twice a year. A creative effort of Manic Sylph Writes, LIT eZINE is on a mission to collect the lone voices from around the world and amplify them so they can be heard above the humdrum din of the mundane. We accept submissions for poetry, micro poetry, short stories, flash fiction, articles (on reading, writing, books, philosophy, life, and other related topics), reviews of new books, and book excerpts (from your own book if it can also stand alone as a piece in itself). We also accept original photography and artwork for illustration and photo prompts. We seek work that is sensitive, thought-provoking, intelligent, and humorous. We encourage artistic expression that portrays depth in characterisation & ideas and exhibits a nuanced perspective of the mundane. We welcome work published on the writer’s website or social media pages but NOT work already published in a magazine, an anthology or a book (unless it is accepted as a book excerpt). Simultaneous submissions are allowed. We accept work on all themes unless specified. However, adult content, such as erotica, horror, and dark fantasy, is not accepted as we at Lit eZine wish to reach a wider audience. Whether you are an indie author, a debutant, unpublished, underrepresented, marginalised or occasional writer or a hobbyist pen wielder, if your ink holds magic, if your words are alive and breathing, if your writing can pierce hearts and stitch together souls, we love you. We are unable to provide monetary compensation for accepted submissions at this time. However, we don’t charge any reading fees either. What we do give our writers is a chance to widen their audience by posting live links along with their work so the readers can find them. This is voluntary labour of love and we aim for the widest possible circulation and exposure for our writers by keeping our magazine free of cost for the readers.
