Call for sumbissions: Sobremesa Magazine!
Want to get your work published in a local Austin magazine?
Sobremesa Volume 6 is all about dirt!
Tell us about planting vegetables in the yard or making a dirty martini. Give us the dirty music your line cooks listen to. Write to us about dirt under your fingernails, cooking outdoors, the best way to clean a potato. Share an oral history of a farm in your town.
Here’s how to submit:
We’ll happily look at drafts or fully realized work. We’ll also happily look at pitches.
Keep draft information and pitches relatively short!
3-5 sentences is great.
If you can’t explain your idea in that space, it’s probably not ready to pitch yet.
We want to know what the piece is about, but we also want to know why you’re writing it and what it might bring to readers.
Try to include the heart of the piece and not just the who/what/when of it all.
We accept art that can be reproduced in the printed form (mostly photos and illustrations), poetry, essay, fiction, recipes, and whatever other genre-bending pieces of writing you want to pitch.
Submissions are due by 11:59pm, June 7, 2026.
