SONIC SUMMER ‘26

Submissions are now open for Sonic Summer ‘26! Deadline: July 27

We are thrilled to receive sound, writing about sound, art made while listening to sound, and more. We want your aural synesthesia, your field recordings, your oral histories. Stand outside your screen door and capture what you hear. Sit a beloved down and ask them to tell you a story. Surprise and delight us! 

Before submitting, we ask that you take a look at Sonic Summer ‘22and ‘24 to get an idea of what we’re looking for.

Please send all submissions to editors@emergentliterary.comwith “Sonic Summer” as the subject line. Feel free to include a short note in the body of the email, and your work as an attachment.

We so look forward to engaging with your work.
