Call for Submissions:

Cerise Press is open year-round to submissions in photography, art, and poetry, including translations in French, Chinese, and Spanish. (For other languages, kindly inquire first.)

Currently, we publish only solicited essays and fiction. If you are interested in submitting prose, interviews, or in proposing other projects, please query editors@cerisepress.com with a cover letter including a brief synopsis, as well as the first 1-2 pages of the work.

If you are interested in reviewing or sending a book, please visit our Books for Review page.

We publish 3 issues per year. Our Summer 2010 issue is forthcoming in July. We are currently reading for the Fall/Winter 2010-11 and the Spring 2011 issues.

All work accepted will be considered for future print anthologies. We accept unpublished pieces, and on very rare occasions, previously published ones.

At the moment, we are not able to offer payment. We read and consider each submission with care and integrity. Although it may take up to 2-3 months for us to reach an editorial decision, we’ll do our best to respond promptly to submissions and to general correspondence. After 3 months, please feel free to query.
