Simultaneous and previously published submissions are permitted. We also encourage experimentation across various mediums. 

Please email your submissions as JPEG or PNG for art, and as PDF or Word Doc — separately for 3 pieces of prose, or in a single file for 5 poems — to encephalonjournal@gmail.com. You may submit writing of no more than 3,000 words across multiple genres in different emails. All art submissions of no more than 10 pieces should be accompanied by the title of the artwork, medium, and a brief artist statement. Include your preferred name and category in the subject line.

Upon acceptance of your submission, you agree that your work is original, available to be reviewed by the Student Editorial Board, and permissible to be publicly displayed online by Encephalon. First serial and electronic rights are granted to us until publication. Unfortunately, due to a high volume of submissions, we cannot accept every piece.

Thank you for considering Encephalon! We look forward to seeing your work.
