Phoebe seeks to publish quality writing. Please review the journal for an idea of what we like.
We do not consider previously published work, but we do encourage simultaneous submissions. We ask for no more than one poetry submission of 3-5 poems or one fiction submission of up to 4000 words at a time.
Fiction and poetry contributors receive two copies of the journal upon publication.
At this time, nonfiction is only published online. Work between 500 and 2000 words is encouraged.

Phoebe is proud and excited to announce we are now accepting submissions of creative nonfiction with an emphasis on avante-garde, experimental voice. Personal narratives are welcome but by no means mandatory.In keeping with the rest of Phoebe’s mission, we insist on openness, which means we welcome both experimental and conventional prose, and we insist on being entertained, which means the work must capture and hold our attention. We value nonfiction as literature and judge it accordingly.
At this time we are accepting work between 500 and 2,000 words in length for publication on our website
