Beyond our magazine, The Vagabond's Verse is building a program dedicated to thoughtfully produced manuscripts by emerging and established creatives. We are particularly interested in projects that blur the boundaries between literature and multimedia art.

We welcome proposals including/blending:

• Photography collections

• Fine art collections

• Short story/Poetry collections

• Artist monographs

• Graphic narratives

• Experimental work

Selected projects will be developed in close collaboration with our editorial and design team before being published under The Vagabond's Verse imprint. Published titles will be sold through our store and selected retail partners.

Authors and artists will receive

• 5 complimentary copies on publication (US shipping only).

• Additional copies will be sold to the author at 50% off the selling price, plus shipping.

• An agreed royalty percentage

We are especially interested in work that is ambitious, visually compelling, and contributes something lasting to contemporary culture. If you have a manuscript or visual project you believe belongs in print, we'd love to hear from you.

Email a pdf. of your manuscript/draft to eden@thevagabondsverse.org and thevagabondsverse@gmail.com with the title, “DRAFT/MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION”

Here’s the link to our partnership deck for collaborations with creative agencies, studios, and art galleries.

Publication Rights

We accept only original works from individuals aged 16 and above. Please do not submit work that is not yours for legal liabilities. We uphold First North American serial rights (FNASR), meaning we hold the right to publish your work (cannot be published anywhere else until after our own publication), and then the rights return to you. Please let us know if your work has been selected for another magazine before our own publication.

If you are located in the United States and are published in any of our print issues, we will do our best to mail you a copy.

Please note that a free copy of our print issue is not guaranteed due to high printing costs.

It is simply an honorary token of our appreciation.

Yes, you absolutely can! We welcome article pitches, or perhaps if you have a fully formed essay you want published on our blog, pitch it to thevagabondsverse@gmail.com and eden@thevagabondsverse.org
