Writers and artists, you are invited to submit your original, previously unpublished works for possible publication in the Vermillion Literary Project's annual literary magazine. We welcome short stories, poetry, creative non-fiction (essays), and black-and-white drawings or photographs, with preference given to works with a South Dakota or Midwestern connection. Note that the only form of payment is a copy of the magazine in which the published work appears.
Mail submissions to The Vermillion Literary Project, Dakota Hall 212, University of South Dakota, 414 E. Clark Street, Vermillion, SD 57069-2390. (Or drop them off in Dakota 212, English Department, University of South Dakota). Or e-mail them as .rtf (rich text format) attachments to projlit@usd.edu. All text submissions should be typed; prose should be double-spaced. Manuscripts and artwork are submitted at the author's or artist's own risk and will not be returned unless accompanied by a self-addressed, postage-paid return envelope. Deadline for submissions (in order to be considered for the issue published the following spring): December 15.
IMPORTANT: Because we use a blind submission process, with the editorial staff not knowing who submitted work, we prefer that you include your name and contact information on a separate page, and nowhere on the submissions themselves.
For those who provide e-mail addresses and/or self-addressed, postage-paid envelopes, we will inform writers about the status of their submissions in March/April.
