What Is Penumbric?

Penumbric is an online magazine dedicated to riding that ever-changing edge of new and original fiction and art and sound and everything into tomorrow, to being a conduit (even a small one) for the voices that speak along that edge, to helping in some way those voices to move the world forward.

Looking for submissions!

Submission window: We are always open for submissions of art, animation, and music! We are currently closed for fiction and poetry submissions.

We are open for fiction and poetry submissions from 15 June to 15 September and from 15 December to 15 March each year.


If any of this sounds interesting to you, sounds like a journey of which you wish to be a part, please submit your work! I would love to see submissions displaying aspects of the true diversity of the world in which we live. In terms of genre, I am looking for work that constitutes the ever-moving edge of its kind, as a place between light and dark, consciousness and un, today and tomorrow; work exhibiting the strange, the bizarre, that which is not of the world we know, but more of a twilight realm or even altogether alien place. In short, ideally edgy. Maybe even idealistically edgy. I generally accept submissions in the following categories: fiction, poetry, illustration, graphic narrative, animation--but I'm happy to look at anything that can be displayed to advantage on the web. There is a small payment for accepted works. See Penumbric's full submission guidelines for details!
