Call For Submissions

The Hudson Review is open to fiction submissions from September 1 to November 30. Online submissions close at 11:59 p.m. on November 30; mailed submissions must be postmarked by November 30. Guidelines as follows:
 

  • Manuscripts must be under 10,000 words. Novel excerpts are considered, but must be able to stand on their own.
  • We consider both US and international submissions.
  • Translations are welcome.
  • We do not consider simultaneous submissions.
  • We do not consider work that has already been published elsewhere or that is due to appear in the near future (if your story has appeared in any form, including online—in a blog, social media posts, etc.—we consider it to be previously published work).
  • Please submit your work online at hudsonreview.com/submissions. We do not charge submission fees. Alternatively, you may mail your submission with a self-addressed stamped envelope to 33 W. 67th St, New York, NY 10023.
  • We do not consider work created with AI.
  •  
    Please note that as we take great care in considering submissions, a decision may take up to six months.
