Submit

Check out our About page to see what kind of work we're looking for. We're dedicated to realism and refuse to sugarcoat the reality of our fallen world, but please keep explicit and graphic details as tasteful as possible. We're not looking for shock value, but for vulnerable and true human experience. Please see specific guidelines below, and send all submissions to solidfoodpress@outlook.com with the subject line: JOURNAL SUBMISSION. *General online submissions are now closed until January 1st, 2024. Christmas and nativity-themed submissions are still welcome at this time.

​

If your work is accepted, you grant us first or second serial rights, and then all rights revert back to you upon publication. We would like to be credited if your work is published here for the first time when/if you submit it again somewhere else. Simultaneous submissions are welcome, but please let us know if your work has been accepted elsewhere.

​

*Due to an influx of submissions, Solid Food's reading period is roughly 4-6 weeks, and only those accepted for publication will be notified. As much as we would love to offer feedback to all submissions, it is just not feasible at this time. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding!
