Great Cities

Paris Vol. 1 is now available for purchase by clicking here.

Submissions for London Vol. 2 have closed.

Submissions for New York Vol. 3 are NOW OPEN, and will close 31st January 2026.

Each volume will feature a great city of the world.

We will be accepting submissions of poetry and prose (fiction and non-fiction) for all ten volumes in the series. Your submission must include the featured city in some way, whether as a memory, wishful thinking, an anecdote, the setting for your story or poem, a place of importance, or where you live or holiday …

Your submission must also be:

  • original, so previously unpublished online or in print (so that includes authors’ websites and blogs)
  • 150 word minimum limit for fiction and non-fiction, stories and essays / maximum 1000 words. (That’s for each story / essay: maximum number of prose pieces you can submit is 3.)
  • 80 word minimum limit for poetry / maximum 1000 words. (That’s for each poem: maximum number of poems you can submit is 5.)
