WAYS TO WORK WITH US
I: Anthophile magazine is a rare beast in publishing: a reader-supported, ad-free magazine.
We are committed to championing new voices and giving space to the work of the creative and curious. So, the next time you make plants, nature and flowers your thing, why not consider submitting to us.
We publish fiction, non-fiction and occasionally poetry.
Written work needs to be literary: fiction and non-fiction needs to be mature and sophisticated, with an elegance of style, structure, and characterisation. Poetry should display a commitment to the specificities of language and show a refined sense of simile and metaphor. We like satire, cartoons, 'fake non-fiction', open letters, and the weird, whimsical and quirky. We are open to publishing extracts from existing books and collections. Understanding that plants and flowers are part of life's bigger picture, a synthesis and celebration of many arts and sciences, will help your chances of being accepted. Please look at our SUBMISSIONS page for further information. To increase your chances of publication, we strongly advise that you purchase a copy of Anthophile before submitting to us.
We love artwork, illustrations, and photography, indeed anything unusual or creative, with a horticultural, botanical or naturalist theme at its heart. Alongside fine art, photographs and illustrations, we seek contemporary art. Art work that surprises, charms, even shocks. We are not a gardening magazine and you do not have to know about flowers or plants to submit work; a vivid imagination is more likely to win us over. Please refer to our submissions page for further information.
We publish one volume every couple of years and our submission window is always open. We can offer a small honarium payment on acceptance of publication which will be agreed prior to acceptance.
II: We are always happy to hear from artists, writers, designers and makers who might be interested in collaborating with us on other projects.
