Submissions
What inspires you as an artist? What are you curious about? What questions do you seek to answer in your work, or what themes do you aim to explore? In your submission, please tell us about yourself! We will include this as part of your creative conversation should we enjoy your piece.
The Introspectionist will never edit work (except for grammatical review). If we have questions, we will ask, but published versions will always be by the artists, in their own expressions. Why? Because we believe art should not be censored or confined to publications’ tastes or agendas.
For submissions, please use the email below. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis.
Write “Submissions” along with the category of your piece in the title of the email. Include your first and last name in the body of the email. For work, please ensure your name is on each submitted piece. Only attachments or links in the acceptable formats listed will be considered for submissions. We aim to respond in a timely fashion, but depending on the volume of submissions cannot guarantee a specific time period. Trust that we are working hard and will get back to you as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
The Introspectionist
