SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

​

Janus Literary Magazine seeks to publish the best work by students at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri every spring. From narrative to experimental, humorous to serious: our student editors want to consider it. We are a venue for those who've published in our pages or elsewhere as well as those who have never been published. We thank you for trusting us with your work. While you are welcome to submit at any time of year, our student editorial team decides on what they will publish each spring semester.

 

You can submit in multiple genres.  If doing so, please submit each piece in a separate file (but you can send them in the same email). Note: We read submissions anonymously, and all pieces that are submitted are considered for the annual genre prizes.

​

Please include in your email a third-person bio, and send all submissions to janusmagwc@gmail.com. For examples of third-person bios, please check out our recent issues in the Journal Archives.
