The Lupine Review: Call for Submissions

February 1 - April 5

Back for 2025, With YOUR Help

The Lupine Review seeks submissions for its 2025 edition as we continue to develop and grow the Sea-to-Sky corridor’s only magazine showcasing the written and visual works of local budding talent.

Entries open on February 1, here on the Whistler Writers Festival website, and will close on March 31.

We’ve changed things up a bit this year, so please read the requirements.

We’re looking for work in three categories:  

  • Creative writing to a maximum of 500 words  
  • Poetry, two pieces maximum, 400 words in total  
  • Visual art in any form  
  • We are keen for works that reflect on the lighter side of life

 

Further details:

  • Submit only once in each category   
  • Submissions must be anonymous. Please do not put your name or identifying features in your submission document/files.  
  • Works must be original, created without the use of artificial intelligence and previously unpublished 
  • Submitters must have a connection to the Sea-to-Sky corridor  
  • Submissions are open to those 18 years and older  
  • Submitters will retain the rights to their works  
  • Written submissions should be double-spaced in Times New Roman with Canadian spellings and uploaded as a Word document
  • Style-wise, we prefer an “em” dash, spacing before and after the use of ellipsis and the avoidance of serial commas.
  • Visual submissions should be uploaded as high-res jpg, gif or png files  
  • Please provide a title for your work
  • Submissions will be anonymized for independent judging  
  • There is no fee to submit  

 

As a small volunteer team, we appreciate you following the above guidelines. We may edit submissions for style, length, clarity and accuracy. The creator of the work will have the opportunity to review changes before publication.

Only successful submitters will be contacted by June 15. Look for an email from [email protected] (and check your junk folders).

Those published will receive one free copy of The Lupine Review and an opportunity to present their work at the magazine’s event during the Whistler Writers Festival in the autumn. For other benefits, watch this space!

We look forward to your submissions.

Colleen MacDonald and Abby Deveney, founders, The Lupine Review  

The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2025.
