Sheepshead Review is a biannual publication, meaning you get two chances a year to submit. Send us your flash fiction, your art, and anything in between! Please see our Submittable page for guidelines on submissions.

Everyone can submit up to three (3) pieces to our fiction, nonfiction, and poetry genres.

Everyone can submit up to five (5) pieces to our visual arts genre.

Our nonfiction staff wants your short memoirs, opinion pieces, narrative stories, interviews, profiles, historical narratives, letters…we’ve even published ironic recipes. The more creative, the better. We don’t want your life story, we want that one epiphanic moment that changed you.

The work may also be used in SHR-sponsored readings, commercials on campus radio and television, campus newspapers, advertising for SHR, and for other purposes that SHR deems necessary.

The fiction staff goes for originality almost as much as the poetry staff. Keep it succinct, keep it human. Short doesn’t denote shallow, and neither does long, sophisticated. Hemingway could roil a stomach in six words.

Our poetry staff is looking for a honed edge. Fresh and lucid content with palpable imagery that tantalizes all the senses really gets them going. Any form is accepted, from free-verse to concrete to formal. Be original. Be bold. Take risks. Be human.
