Hello creators. This state is filled with people who write, draw, make and otherwise create unique work in a variety of media. Part of our mission at NJ Indy is to provide a platform for that work, and to help connect like-minded artists and patrons. We’re looking for work to highlight both in our print edition and online in these categories:
Poetry/Fiction
We’re seeking poetry and short fiction pieces from New Jersey writers up to 1,000 words. If our editors select your work, we’ll publish it in our monthly print edition and online. Please submit a maximum of three poems or short fiction pieces for consideration to poetry@njindy.com. We will consider submissions on a rolling basis, and we ask that you submit no more than one batch per month. You may include a brief author bio with your submission, and we will, of course, notify you if your work is selected.
Visual Media
We accept visual media of all styles in any media that can be reproducible in our print edition—so, everything from photography to comics to graphic fiction to digital art and everything in between. Send up to five submissions per month to editor@njindy.com; we’ll review submissions on a rolling basis for inclusion in print and online. You may include a brief author bio with your submission, and we will, of course, notify you if your work is selected.
Music
If you’re an NJ band, coming through to a play show here, represent a local band, AND you have new music/work or an upcoming show, send a press release or an email with relevant info and links to editor@njindy.com.
Other
If you don’t see your medium here, no worries! Just reach out and let us know what you’re working on and we’ll see if we can find a place for it in NJ Indy.
