Brief Bio
In publication since 1999, we are an independent journal that appears online as well as in annual print issues. We don’t adhere to any particular themes or tastes, but some people tell us they see one, so who knows. Our past contributors include Ron Carlson, Stephen Graham Jones, Claudia Smith, Tao Lin, Blake Butler, Paul Griner, Shane Jones, Justin Taylor, Kim Chinquee, Todd Grimson, and many others. Published works have been anthologized in W.W. Norton’s New Sudden Fiction, Best New Poets, Dzanc Books’ Best of the Web, and elsewhere.
Donations
Amazing fact: we have never made a single penny. We’re proud of this accomplishment, the way someone riddled with bullet holes but still standing might be proud. Unfortunately, this is also cause for consternation and speculation, like, what makes this possible? Divine intervention? Unimaginable luck? A really good shirt? With a small donation you can add the kindness of strangers to that list, and help support independent literature. Every dollar, dime, or penny will go directly to printing and web hosting costs. It won’t even be used for new shirts.

Submissions
If you like what you read here, and you have something that’s more or less up our alley, send it to us via our Submission Manager.
There are no limits on word count for prose—we like stories of all sizes, so long as the colors fit. Send us one piece at a time, regardless of length. For poetry, send a maximum of five poems.
We encourage simultaneous submissions, but please withdraw your work promptly if it has been accepted elsewhere. (To withdraw single poems, email us at submissions@juked.com.) Previously published material, we are sorry to say, will not be considered.
We are now reading Print submissions year-round.
Your work will always remain yours; we ask only for first- and one-time and archival rights. That means we use your work once, and then we place it lovingly into our archive.
We do not yet pay our contributors with hard currency, but are hopeful that will change sometime in the future.
Here is a picture so you can have something to think of when sending us your work:

Contact
We are alive and sometimes well and reachable at info@juked.com. Indicate Hello Juked in the subject heading so that we can more easily distinguish it from sneaky marketers trying to make us buy pills or watch porn. Jokes and tall tales are particularly welcome.
