Only a few days left to submit! Translations that take risks, spark conversations, and bring new voices into focus. Paratexts that let us peek behind the curtain. Share your translator’s notes, drafts, commentaries, correspondence, reflections on collaboration, or thoughts on translator identity.

Hi everyone, If you are a literary translator, please fill our survey ! It only takes a few minutes and we need your feedback to get a clearer picture 😊 www.ceatl.eu/ceatls-ai-su...

Just a reminder that we also accept art and photography submissions. We're looking for edgy, yet playful. Send your pieces to [email protected]

So far we’ve received many excellent pieces, but we’re still short on short stories. If you have a short‑story translation you're eager to share with the world, do send it our way!

We’ve extended the submissions deadline to March 1. Still plenty of time for you to submit and for us to get our chicks in order (starting a lit mag definitely comes with a learning curve :))
