OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS OCTOBER 1, 2024 TO JANUARY 1, 2025!
- To submit you must be the original creator of the work submitted and have been touched by the power of Brainspotting.
- We only accept electronic submissions.
- We do not accept work that has been previously published.
- We love a brief cover letter that tells us where you are from and a little about who you are as a creative and a Brainspotter. Please tell us the name or names of the pieces you are submitting in your cover letter. If you are so moved, we would love to read a brief description of how Brainspotting connects to your creative experience. Include a brief, third person bio (100 words or less).
- Only one submission per genre (poetry and prose poems, fiction/creative non-fiction, art) per submission window.
- No re-submission of the same work unless we have contacted you and requested a revision.
- We strive to be quick. Please query us if you have not heard back within 60 days of submitting at bonetobrain@gmail.com.
By submitting to us, you grant us First Serial Rights, the right to publish your work on our site, as well as Archival Rights, the right to archive your work on our website, with credit given to the author. Otherwise, upon publication, all rights revert back to the author under the condition that you will credit Bone to Brain as the original publisher should your work be reprinted. You also grant us the right to publish your work on the International Brainspotting Practitioners Facebook page, Brainspotting for the Creative and Performing Arts Facebook page, and other social media sites to give your work a large audience.
Please note: We are a small and entirely volunteer staff and unable to consider work that does not follow our submission guidelines. In addition, submissions that are defamatory, discriminatory, or plagiarized will not be considered. We strongly discourage the use of AI unless it is integral to your work and the author clearly states the intent behind the use of AI in the cover letter.
