Neon Origami strives to publish bold and thought-provoking work by writers holding a wide variety of perspectives. As such, we will consider work that some might find controversial as long as it does not include outright hate speech. Graphic violence, sexuality, explicit language, etc. is allowed.
We nominate our writers for prestigious awards like the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Awards.
We will only consider stories and poems that have not yet been published in a book or literary review. We will consider work that you’ve posted on your personal socials or website.
We will not consider manuscripts that have already been published in their entirety elsewhere. We will consider manuscripts containing stories, poems, essays, articles, etc. that have been published elsewhere.
Plagiarism is not allowed, and submission of plagiarized content will result in a lifetime submission ban.
AI-generated content is not allowed.
