broke press accepts submissions of unpublished, chapbook-length manuscripts in any genre

Submission guidelines

Manuscripts must be no more than 16 pages in length

Manuscripts must be unpublished as a whole

If pieces from your manuscript have been published previously, please note publication details in the body of your submission email!

Writers must be Canadian citizens or permanent residents

To keep my options open for the hopes of government grants in the future, and to make sure that I can get you your honorarium if I publish your work, I limit submissions to Canadian citizens and permanent residents, for now anyways!

Manuscripts must be formatted in an easy-to-read serif typeface and sent as a PDF to brokepress@gmail.com

Send submission fee following instructions below:

Submission fee is a sliding scale of $10-$25 and can be paid via e-transfer to brokepress@gmail.com . Please note in the e-transfer message your name and title of manuscript! Include your mailing address in your submission email if you would like a chapbook from the catalogue as a thank you for submitting.

broke press is a one-woman operation! I hope to get back to you about the status of your submission by April, 2025, but it might be a little longer depending on the amount of submissions! If accepted, you will receive a $100 honorarium and 20% of the print run of your chapbook upon publication :)
