Editorial Focus

Founded in 1981, BOMB Magazine is dedicated to delivering the artist’s voice. The editors are looking for weird, unexpected, and exciting work. BOMB accepts submissions of previously unpublished poetry and short fiction through Submittable.

Tips From the Editor

BOMB hosts an annual literary contest, alternating between fiction and poetry each year, with a distinguished guest judge. We encourage submissions of adventurous work that push the boundaries of form or content in some way. Our submission period is open once a year in the fall. Before submitting, we encourage you to read the magazine, online and in print, to acquaint yourself with the material we have published. Subscriptions to BOMB are available on our website.
