Editorial Focus
The Rumpus strives to be a platform for marginalized voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere and to lift up new voices alongside those of more established writers they love. The editors publish original fiction, essays, poetry, author interviews, book reviews, comics, and more.
Tips From the Editor
Please check The Rumpus’ Submittable page for our open reading periods. Typically, each section (poetry, fiction, essays, and comics) is open two times a year for two weeks to one month. Interview and book review submissions are open year-round.
