The Glass Post is a new online magazine, “dedicated to showcasing raw, heartfelt storytelling in all its forms.” They publish poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, as well as creative letters. The letters, which can be written to anyone, offer a profoundly personal form of storytelling.
The Glass Post publishes content online on a rolling basis. New, “freshly posted” writing is featured on their homepage regularly. Their website is thoughtfully designed and easy to navigate, with thematic artwork throughout. They’ve been publishing since the beginning of February this year.
Poets may submit up to three poems, five pages or fewer total. Authors of prose (fiction and nonfiction) may submit up to three pieces, 50 to 2,000 words each. The Glass Post also accepts creative letters. Authors may submit up to three letters, 1,500 words or fewer each. Letters should be “poetic or expressive”. In general, The Glass Post likes writing that is “authentic, real, imaginative, and contemplative.”
