If you’re looking to be published by Aphor, you're in the right place.

For starters, we are interested in poetry, fiction, philosophical writing and essays, and other forms of non-fiction, as long as they are in the aphoristic spirit. We are extremely interested in work that plays with genre. We enjoy works in the spirit of some of these writers.

Submissions are free. Please submit to submit (at) aphor.org. Please use the subject line to inform us of the title of your work, include a personal statement in the body of the email, and send the file.

Feel free to send us a few submissions, but don’t flood our inbox. You are free to submit new work as frequently as it suits you.

Given our interest in aphoristic writing, we are not interested in publishing extremely lengthy works on their own; however, we would be interested in complete, yet serializable writing, or long works that are segmented and pithy.

We would be interested in visual art that is more classical in taste, we also enjoy charcoal drawings and oil paintings. We love portraiture.

Our turn-around time is quick, but we accept simultaneous submissions nonetheless. Please let us know as soon as possible if your work is accepted elsewhere.

We are okay with work that has been previously published on a personal website, or has been somehow orphaned. Please let us know in your cover letter so that we can consider that factor ahead of time.

We do not ordinarily provide feedback on accepted or rejected work. If you would like to receive some feedback along with your submission outcome, please donate a few dollars to our ko-fi for site maintenance (be sure to include your name), and note that you have done so in your cover letter because you desire feedback.

To read more about our terms of publication, look here at the nitty-gritty. All writers, even solicited works, are subject to the same terms.
