PFN – Call for Submissions to Mid-Level Management Literary Magazine (MIDLVLMAG) Theme: “Dress Code”
DRESS CODE is the clothing we wear, the image we present, the requirements set before us by corporations in the pursuit of uniformity and consistency.
DRESS CODE is personal, intimate, a klaxon / clarion call to let others know who we are.
DRESS CODE is the compromise we make to put food on the table, the morals we sacrifice to fit in, the opportunities we take to get ahead.
DRESS CODE is our innermost self as expression, as art, as code, as signal, as call and response.
DRESS CODE is ubiquitous camouflage, overt isms, the way it’s always been.
Simultaneous Submissions:
Yes! Just let us know if you’ve got your work out to other publications so we don’t step on any toes in the process.
Payments:
MIDLVLMAG is volunteer run and free-to-read. Because of this, we are not currently in a position to pay contributors.
Submission Criteria:
MIDLVLMAG publishes short/flash fiction, poetry, prose, and CNF/essays.

Please include an author bio with your submission email.
