WE ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED FOR SUBMISSIONS.

Additional Information:

We do not accept multiple submissions. Multiple submissions will be returned unread.

We only consider previously unpublished work.

We DO accept simultaneous submissions but please notify us as soon as possible if your work is accepted elsewhere.

Origins is an online and print publication interested in showcasing first worldwide serial rights and nonexclusive reprint rights, for the full term of the copyright, for publication of the work in electronic, audio, and print form (which means that the magazine may reprint this work in a future print publication and may archive it online for permanent display, however reconfigured, on this website) and for use, along with the author’s name, in publicizing, promoting, and advertising the work itself as well as Origins.

Soon, we hope to offer payment to our contributors. We are working hard to raise money to be able to do this. If you'd like to support this effort, you may do so by choosing to submit either under the EXPEDITED SUBMISSION or TIP JAR SUBMISSION category. We also accept donations in any amount on our website under the DONATE tab.

Responses may take several months. As with submissions to any literary magazine, familiarity with our journal will give you a sense of the kind of work we like.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at originsjournal(at)gmail(dot)com.
