Summer Issue
Issue Twenty

We are proud to say we are now paying for our featured writing sections (Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Poetry. $25.00 for each featured story). SUBMIT NOW!!!

Submissions may range from the whimsical to the morose; from experimental toying with words and images to aggressive and adamant opinion pieces.

Most importantly, we're looking for work that is sensory, tactile, and coherent; work that breathes and feels and evokes; words, thoughts, and images that you'd want to carry in your hip pocket for future use.

Submissions may be in the form of:

Fiction and Poetry
(experimental, abstract, narrative, etc).
Non-fiction
(opinion, travel writing, review, memoir, treatments).
Art
(paint, sketch, acrylic, watercolor, silverpoint).
Photography
(b/w, color, superimpositions).
Dialogue based writing
(playwriting, screenwriting, monologues).

Authors retain all copyrights of their work. Should another publishing opportunity arise, Pieces can be removed from the site on a monthly basis.

Artwork can be accepted in digital form (please save work as jpegs and not bmp files) or through prints 11x17 and smaller.

Writing should be between 500-3000 words.

Dialogue based writing should be no more than 10 pages and should be complete scenes (no full length screenplays, please).

Please include with your submission:

Name
Brief cover letter or email note introducing yourself and your work.
Mailing address.
Email.
Title of work(s) if applicable.
How you heard of The Portable Muse.

Electronic submissions should be sent to:
