Protean Magazine Submissions| Pay Writers

Protean is an online literary magazine that pays writers or contributor's for their works.

According to the Magazine,

Exposure doesn’t pay the bills, so we do our best to compensate freelancers fairly, offering the highest rates that we can afford. We do not expect contributors to work on spec. We pay in full on acceptance—not on publication.

Protean Magazine Submission Guidelines

They do not have a submission fee.

Submit using the appropriate email inbox, as outlined below.

They publish work geared explicitly to the anti-capitalist left. Please take that into strong consideration when submitting.

They will always reject submissions with racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, classist, ableist, or otherwise bigoted content.

Simultaneous submissions are fine—just let them know.

They typically do not accept republications of written works. The make exceptions for poetry that has appeared on social media and unpublished excerpts from upcoming books (rights permitting).

All submissions (criticism, fiction, and poetry) should include a short bio, past bylines, and other relevant information in the pitch email.

When pitching an article, tell them why you’re the right person to write this piece.

If your pitch is time-sensitive for any reason, please explain.

Their preferred format is a Word document (.doc) attached to your email. (Please don’t send work in .pdf format.)

Calls for submissions for their print editions will be announced via social media and a post on their website. Please do not submit for print unless there is an open call.

All questions should be directed to editorial@proteanmag.com.
