Etchings is an Australian journal and...well...pretty much everything that needs to be said is already said in its guidelines :)

We accept submissions of all styles of literary fiction, poetry, personal & creative essays, photography, and art.

All unsolicited submissions must be unpublished.

We also accept electronic submissions, particularly from overseas contributors. Format: RTF for writing, and 300 dpi for images (JPG preferred).

All accepted work will need to be submitted in electronic format: RTF or PDF for writing, and 300 dpi for images (JPG preferred).

Please limit submissions to three prose pieces (max 5000 words per piece), or three images. Poetry submissions should include at least three, but no more than six poems.

Contributors are paid AU$75 and receive one copy of the issue they appear in. (For poetry, this fee covers three to five pages of poems; a fee of AU$35 is paid for poems up to two pages.) Please note: Australian contributors are paid by cheque. International contributors are paid via PayPal secure payment services.

Email electronic submissions to: etchings@ilurapress.com

Oh yea, Etchings publishes themed issues, so be sure you are submitting the right kind of work. However, the site says that if it doesn't match the current issue, it'll be saved for the next issue's consideration.

The themes are intended as starting points only, and they can be interpreted in many different ways.

 Good Luck :)

Right...one more thing: For examples, there are sample pages from the current and back issues available on the site!

I highly suggest you peruse the Island Magazine website. It has lots of sample work from past issues for you to take a look at, and it also has Islet!

Islet is the online only version of Island Magazine and has it's own set of guidelines.

Islet is Island magazine’s online-only journal. Islet is updated regularly and publishes short work by emerging writers. Please read our submission guidelines before submitting your work as only writing that meets these guidelines will be considered.
Islet Online Submission Guidelines

Islet not only accepts unsolicited submissions, it's actually geared towards accepting the work of emerging writers (read the guidelines) - it also accepts submissions from visual artists as well.

The guidelines for Islet, as well as the pay rate are completely different from Island Magazine's, but they are still pro rates. The Islet link contains work from featured artists that you can peruse as well.


On another note, according to Island Mag's front page, they may be in danger of losing some of their major funding. If you feel you want to do your part to help the zine out, please do follow some of the suggestions listed there. You can also get more info on their Facebook and Twitter pages
