Illuminations accepts submissions of up to six poems at a time by mail, fax, or e-mail. The poems should not be under consideration elsewhere, nor should they have been published already. Please make sure to include name and address on each poem if sending by mail. We also accept short prose pieces on occasion, but space is very scarce. You can usually expect a response within a month but we're often a little slower than that. The magazine is published once a year in the northern summer, so depending on when your work is accepted the lag between acceptance and publication can vary considerably.
