StepAway Magazine is a new, online literary magazine publishing the best urban flash fiction and poetry by writers from across the globe. The title of the magazine draws inspiration from Frank O’ Hara’s landmark flâneur poem, “A Step Away from Them”. Our magazine is hungry for literature that evokes the sensory experience of walking in specific neighborhoods, districts or zones within a city. This is flânerie for the twenty-first century.

Our aim is to become an online repository of walking narratives. Our writers will lead our readership through the streets of his or her chosen city. They will do so in one thousand words or less. There are no further rules. We want whatever you can share.

Please submit your work and a press-ready biography to: submissions@stepawaymagazine.com

Send one story or poem at a time. All submissions should be contained within the body of the email. No attachments please.  Simultaneous submissions are accepted. StepAway Magazine aims to respond to submissions within 14 days. We accept/reject on a rolling basis. Writers should submit no more than once a month. The author retains all rights to a piece of work accepted by StepAway Magazine.

StepAway Magazine is a nonprofit organization, edited and maintained by volunteers.
