PRISM International Rolling Submissions

PRISM international publishes exciting, original, literary material from established and emerging writers in Canada and around the world.

We accept submissions year-round. Due to the high volume of submissions we receive each month, reply times range between six to twelve months, depending on the time of year. We are currently experiencing a backlog. Please do not reach out to check on the status of your submission. Your submission remains under review unless marked “declined”. A good deal of our content is generated from our annual fiction, poetry, short forms and creative non-fiction contests. Please visit our contest page for more details.

If you encounter any issues using Submittable when trying to submit to a free category (for example black or indigenous entries) please send an email directly to one of the editors below.

Enquiries about submissions should be directed to PRISM International. Please always refer to their website for complete details and information.

Please note, this competition is run by PRISM International, not the Commonwealth Foundation.
