Submission guidelines

How to submit your material to Planet

Most articles, features and reviews in Planet are commissioned. If you have an idea for an article that you think might be relevant to the magazine, send a letter of enquiry with a brief synopsis.

We accept hard-copy and email submissions. Submissions should be typed and (hard-copies) will not be considered unless accompanied by a stamped addressed envelope or International Reply Coupons. Overseas contributors should note that 1 IRC is only sufficient for reply and will not cover the cost of the return of a typescript.

Planet publishes 1 story and 6-10 poems per issue. Planet publishes fiction and poetry in a wide range of styles and on a variety of themes. Length for fiction: under 4000 words.

Fees: £50.00 per 1000 words for prose; a minimum of £30.00 per poem. Payment on publication.

Once accepted by the editor, material can be sent on disc or as an e-mail attachment or if you cannot supply it digitally, even as a typescript to this address:
