Unfortunately, Milk Money is on hiatus, and no longer accepting submissions at this time.

What kind of work does Milk Money publish?

Milk Money seeks out exceptional works of literary and experimental fiction and poetry. Works should be no more than 5,000 words whether it is fiction or poetry. Please only submit one short story per issue, but feel free to submit several works of poetry. Have fun! We’re open to many genres and experimental forms.

Can Milk Money accept work that has previously been published?

If a work has been published outside of the United States or published in an online-only journal, we will consider it; please specify in the cover letter field of our submishmash page if this is the case when you are submitting. All other previously published material will not be considered.

How do I submit?

We have recently changed the way we accept submissions: We can no longer accept work sent to us via e-mail. All work must be sent to us online via submishmash at http://milkmoney.submishmash.com/Submit. If sending multiple pieces for review, please be sure to compile all work into a single document before uploading.

Do you accept simultaneous submissions?

We sure do. Please make note in the cover letter/biography field on submishmash if you are submitting simultaneously. And please be sure to withdrawal your work via the submishmash manager page.

Can I design a future Milk Money cover?

Yes! We hand select the artists who design our covers and are always in need of candidates for future issues. Please send files from your portfolio to our submission manager on submishmash under "Artist Portfolios," http://milkmoney.submishmash.com/Submit.

Does Milk Money pay contributors for accepted works?

Unfortunately, no. We publish the magazine solely on generous, private donations from readers and release events. As the magazine grows, we hope to one day compensate our contributors, but at this point we cannot.

When can I expect to hear from Milk Money regarding the status of my submission?

The magazine accepts submissions on a rolling basis with specific deadlines for our issues. The wait time to hear back from us can range from six weeks to three months. Please be patient. We do notify you of our final decisions regarding your work.

Note: Submissions do not have to reflect the theme or title of the volume.
