In accordance with the inspiration behind Chaleur Magazine, we look for work that applies pressure to our weak spots, work that opposes, work that makes us sweat, work that makes us seek shade that will never come. Catalysis is tied to no phase and no medium, so we accept submissions in four categories: Essays, Story, Poetry, and Art. Excerpts of submissions, whether selected for publication or not, may receive free promotion on our social media pages. There is a limit of two submissions per category per month (we will not review more than 10 submissions from a single source within a calendar month). We aim for a response time of 1-2 months, please do not inquire about your submission until nine weeks have passed.Work published elsewhere is accepted as long as the creator retains publishing rights; the publication date and initial publisher of said work must be identified. Chaleur Magazine reserves the right to edit content for simple errors and formatting to increase readability. Submissions for the monthly online issues of Chaleur Magazine are accepted with a $3.25 fee and do not receive compensation. Submissions for our 36-hour prompt competitions are accepted without a reading fee and compensated with a prize. Submissions for our quarterly print issue are separate from those of our monthly online issues, they are accepted with a $5 reading fee and receive compensation upwards of $25 if selected.

Due to high submission volumes we are unable to offer specific feedback for each submission.
