Submissions for Issue VI: STARFALL will open soon. We look forward to reading your work!
For our issues, we are currently looking for work from writers and artists between the ages of 13-25. For blog articles, we are looking for work from writers of any ages. For interviews and reviews, we are currently looking to highlight work from creators under the age of 30.
To submit written work, please fill out this Google form.
To submit photography, please fill out this Google form.
To submit any other art, please fill out this Google form.
To submit for special calls, please check the corresponding pages linked below.
Submissions are free, and we aim to respond to all submissions within two weeks. However, we are an all-volunteer staff, so your patience is appreciated. Feel free to query if you have not heard back from us within a month. Unfortunately, we will not be able to provide feedback on submissions this cycle.
If accepted, pieces may be slightly modified to conform with house style. If this is the case, you will be contacted via email. Contributors are also welcome to make edits to their pieces after they have been accepted (though we prefer that such edits are kept to the line level).
As of right now, we are not a paying market. If we feature your work in our magazine, we hope our thanks will be payment enough!
We do not tolerate work that promotes racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism, audism, or other discriminatory content. Additionally, because our staff consists of many minors, please do not submit any overly explicit work. All such pieces will be automatically rejected without feedback.

Simultaneous Submissions
We currently accept previously published work and simultaneous submissions. If a simultaneously submitted piece is accepted elsewhere, please notify us so we can credit the site of its original publication.
If Augment is the first home for your work, we ask for First North American serial rights. If your work is published elsewhere afterward, please credit The Augment Review as a previous publisher. All artists and writers retain their rights to their work.
Resubmitting
If you are rejected, please wait at least 1 month before submitting new work in the same category. Unfortunately, we will not accept resubmissions of rejected work. If you are accepted, please wait until the next reading period before resubmitting. We aim to uplift as many voices and perspectives as possible, so please know that we are less likely to publish a piece from a previous contributor.
