Editorial Focus
perhaps is a magazine devoted to wondering, asking questions, and exploring topics that deserve slow and careful consideration. The editors publish long- and short-form essays, fiction, artwork, and visualizations that spend time with a subject, offering not authoritative views but explorations, provocations, and engagements. From the environment to communities, from artifacts to metaphysics, to literary fiction and visual art, perhaps is an open space to explore ideas.
Tips From the Editor
Can you draw meaningful connections across disparate topics? Can you make us rethink something in a new way? Can you make something visible that has largely remained hidden? Can you write voice-driven fiction that pulls us into a character’s unique world? Drop us a line. We’d love to hear your ideas. Please submit a proposal (max 300 words) and we’ll let you know if it sounds like a fit for perhaps. You may submit complete pieces (up to 5,000 words) for consideration. Submissions will be considered for the website and print edition.
