Image does not have a formal set of guidelines. We do welcome unsolicited submissions, however, and consider all submissions carefully.
We ask those who wish to submit writing—whether fiction, essay, interview, memoir or poetry—to read the journal and get an idea for the type and range of material we publish. In general, we have a 6,000-word maximum.
We welcome queries from writers who want an initial yea or nay on essay topics, interviews with accomplished writers and artists, and other nonfiction pieces.
Visual artists or their representatives should send a sampling of their work in the form of slides, photos, or printed images.
We do not accept electronic submissions. Please send a self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) so that we can reply to your submission and return your work (if you want it returned). Due to financial considerations and the large number of submissions we receive, we cannot respond to those that don't include an SASE. Please do not send us the only existing copy of your work.
Upon acceptance, we offer a contract for first serial rights. We do not accept previously published material.
