Join us 1 June in Glasgow for the release of Issue 50!

We are delighted to announce that issue 49 of From Glasgow to Saturn will soon be ready to launch! Everyone who wants to, whether you contributed to this issue or not, is welcome to attend our launch party. This will be held on the 5th of December at Dram! Glasgow, on 232 Woodlands Rd, Glasgow G3 6ND, starting at 7PM and running until 11PM. Issues of the journal will of course be available to purchase. We will also have readings from contributors as well as an open mic where everyone has the opportunity to share something they’ve written. And if you don’t, just come along for the drinks and the nice literary company! We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible, and having a fantastic night together celebrating the latest issue of From Glasgow to Saturn.

If you have any questions or accessibility needs, reach out to us over email and we’re happy to help you out.

It’s that time again! From Glasgow to Saturn is now accepting submissions for Issue 49. Submissions will be open from today, September 19, until October 17, so get your creative juices flowing and submit before you miss the chance!

We are accepting prose, poetry, hybrid forms and visual artworks from past and present students, staff and alumni from the University of Glasgow and Glasgow School of Art.

Please go through the submission guidelines carefully before you submit. Submissions that do not follow these guidelines will not be considered. Prose pieces should be no longer than 2,500 words. You can submit up to three poems, with a total length of up to 120 lines. More details are available on the guidelines page.

Please send submissions to: fromglasgowtosaturnjournal@gmail.com. This is a new submissions address, do not send submissions to the old email that you might have submitted to previously. We are unable to consider submissions sent to any address other than this one.

We’re extremely excited to read what you have for us this time around, so let’s make this the best issue so far and submit all your best work! Also keep an eye on our social media channels to avoid missing out on some more exciting news coming in the near future.

As we’re getting ready to open up submissions for our next issue, we’ve decided to have a little event to get to know you all during fresher’s week! Expect collage making, wine, nice conversation and a chill atmosphere. It’s an excellent opportunity to get in the creative spirit before submissions open, and to meet fellow creatives in a low-pressure environment.

We’ll be meeting on Wednesday 14th of September between 6 PM and 7.45 PM, at our usual venue for launch parties, Dram! We hope to see you there!
