Publishing Cale

We accept thought provoking fiction and non fiction stories of up to 5000 words.

Poetry can be of any length and format.

We accept simultaneous submissions. Please be advised that if accepted for online publication,
your story or poem will remain on Literary House web site archives.

What Literary House Editors look for:


Meaningful stories with interesting openings, to hold reader attention past the first paragraph or two.


We seek stories containing strong plots and lively characters who speak to us through
realistic dialogue ( monologue/narrative is lovely but a sufficient amount of engaging dialogue is a necessity. )

Walk us 'into' your story - take us on the journey you have created for us - that wonderful escape where we may linger - so that we may be left thinking about the beginning, middle and end of your wonderful story. 

In short, please send us intelligent, intellectual, memorable stories of substance. 

**Submit FINAL PRINT READY manuscripts, as no revisions of accepted manuscripts can be made on document. 

**Accepted Manuscripts and poetry will be printed "AS IS".  We are no longer able to provide pdf proof galleys for author revisions. The reason for this change is due to the fact that we have been receiving far too many unnecessary author revisions, which should have been made before manuscript submission.  Unnecessary revisions require time and resources that we simply cannot afford.


Poems may be of any length and format.  We want to experience every emotion possible to the human heart and soul.  Leave us breathless and fulfilled.

No spacey sci fi, fantasy, giddy or gothic romance.  No bloody horror.  Literary House is a platform for the  perfection of the serious writer - a stepping stone to one of the most prestigious nominations a writer can receive, Pushcart Press Nomination.


We encourage established and new, unpublished writers.

You may send poems of any length, style and format.

Submit fiction and non fiction, up to 5000 words ** in BLOCK format without tabs.  Skip a space between paragraphs and we will insert the tabs, complete the formatting and send the story back to you on a pdf file for approval.  This is important, as we cannot always remove document formatting/tabs, which interferes with our document programs.  Please do not send us formatted texts.  When typing, do not hit hard returns, but rather use word flow at the end of each line.

LH reserves the right to correct grammar and sentence structure, but will not re-write a story.
