For submissions, the reading period is August 1 to December 1 each fall. Submissions made outside of this timeframe will be returned and not considered for inclusion in the spring publication.

There are no restrictions on subject or style, although all work must be original, unpublished, and written in English (or include a translation into  English). Notify Pinyon immediately if the work is accepted or published elsewhere. Include a brief cover letter with an author bio and contact information with each submission. If your work is not selected one year and you would like it considered for future editions, please resubmit during the next reading period.

For more information and notation about pieces or submission guidelines, please visit the Pinyon website.
