The Underland Review: Call for Submissions.

This Zine is a Lie

By River and Celia in UnderlandPublished about a year ago • Updated about a year ago • 1 min read

An experimental call for submissions.

For poets, glitchers, microfictionists, rebels, ghosts & such.

We are seeking:

  • Poetry that twitches nervously
  • Microfiction that self-destructs on a whim
  • Essays with vampire fangs
  • Visual art that shouldn’t really exist

Redacted files, haunted code, cursed diagrams, scanned receipts from imaginary revolutions and nightmares in the morning.

  • We do not care about your CV.
  • We do not require polished bios.
  • Previously published works? Sure.

We do not pay (yet. Sorry, capitalism).

But we do offer love, weirdness, and a bit of a spotlight.

✴ Featured contributors will receive:

  • A digital copy of the zine
  • Features on our site and socials
  • An invite to our glitch-lit open mic (date tba)
  • The deep satisfaction of being canon in a lie

Deadline: August 10th, 2025.

Published: On or before the 13th August.

Format: Word for text. JPG/PNG for art. Max 2 pieces per person.

Email: [email protected]

Subject line: This submission is a lie — [Your Name/Pen Name]

We don’t tolerate bigotry, AI slush, or boring work.
