Our submissions are currently closed, and we anticipate they will reopen in Autumn 2024. 

Please read our FAQ’s below for general information about our open calls. 

---

When do you run open calls?

We run open calls twice yearly, roughly in the Spring and Autumn. We generally give 3-4 weeks between open call and submission deadlines.

Where do I submit?

Please send submissions to stickyfingerspublishing@gmail.com with the subject heading ‘[THEME] Open Call’

What can I submit?

We are interested in interdisciplinary work that focus on design, academia, art, visual culture and performance. We like writing which is concerned with how and where knowledge is produced, maintained, and distributed; the erotics of this, and its intersections with marginalisation and materiality. We predominatly publish essays and prose. 

What happens once I’ve submitted?

We read every submission we receive, and always give feedback if we can. We will get back to you within a week of the final submission deadline, and if you are successful we will ask you for:

The name you publish under
Your pronouns
The title of your piece
Social media links
Your postal address so we can send you a copy.

There will be around a month between the submission deadline and the sale of the publication. We work together with writers to structure mutually beneficial feedback sessions.

We consider work on a case-by-case basis, so if you are in doubt about any of these guidelines, we encourage you to submit anyway.
