[edit] Submission Guidelines
Puerto del Sol's editors read poetry submissions from September 1 to November 1 and fiction submissions from November 1 through March 1 each year. The editors generally respond to submissions in three to five months. They ask that writers clearly identify their work as fiction, poetry, or essays and include a SASE.
Puerto del Sol accepts simultaneous submissions but asks that writers writers notify the journal as soon as possible if their work is accepted elsewhere.
