Advertise in The Benefactor!

The Benefactor accepts simultaneous submissions with notice, and multiple submissions with discretion. Please address all submissions to the appropriate editor(s) as listed at left.

SHORT FICTION SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: There is no word count requirement, no style adherence, nor do we develop themes for issues before one may emerge spontaneously. You may send hard copies to The Benefactor, 730 NE Weidler St. #18., Portland, Oregon, 97232. Include self-addressed stamped envelope if you would like your submission returned upon completion of our selection process. We currently accept all electronic file formats, and will not judge you too harshly for using outdated or improperly styled submissions. Please follow the email subject line format: Fiction, [Title]

POETRY SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Send no fewer than a couple and no more than several poems as a .doc, .odt or .rtf attachment. Include a brief & non-po-biz cover letter in the body of the email, and the phrase “Benefactor Poetry Submission” in the subject line to ensure your email finds the right folder. Please wait two months before querying and six months before submitting more work. Good work that is not accepted will likely be returned with a little note on it. Work obviously unsuited to the magazine (i.e. rhyming couplets regarding how much you love your spouse) will go unanswered forever or will be returned with obvious derision.

VISUAL ART SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: Send at least 5 images, you'll stand a better chance at publication if they all come from the same body of work.

Writers, artists and otherwise who are chosen to appear in The Benefactor will receive a copy of the respective issue. Please know that we're working feverishly to increase this reward, and you'll be the first to know when that's possible.
