Submission Form (Previously Published/Produced Work)

Submission Form for Previously Published or Produced Work

This Submission Form is for work that has been published in literary journals, magazines, anthologies and collections, including now-defunct publications and student-run publications; and work that has been produced by a theater or production company (in the case of stage plays and screenplays).

As much as we respect self-publishing and self-production, we do not accept self-published work in this form.

If you want to submit a piece that has not been published/produced before but has been workshopped with SEA Lit Circle, please go to this form.

Pandan Weekly is a zine and weekly email newsletter for hearty writing from Asia and the diaspora. We accept works that have and have not been published before. We want the works you wish someone out there would resonate with; works you write for fun, for your peace of mind, or for you to understand the world or yourself better; works you wish you had grown up with—works that beg for connections, or empathy.

Many platforms operate to showcase the “best” writing, and we’d like to co-exist with them as a space for writing that aims to reach out to other people and make connections.
