Undergrowth online publishes on a rolling schedule so submissions are always accepted for its Features section. Selected content that fits set themes may then be reprinted in Undergrowth Magazine, which is both hosted online and available as a limited print edition at selected outlets across Australia. Please download previous issues to familiarise yourself with where we're coming from and to ensure you don't duplicate previously submitted issues.

Undergrowth Magazine publishes fresh analytical perspectives of Counter-Cultural thought, including but not limited to alternative art, culture, consciousness, magick, psychedelics, economics, history, politics, social movements & commentary, independent thought, sustainable communities, new paradigm thought and radical solutions. We also publish short fiction (500 - 3000 words), poetry, art and comic strips that fits these themes, especially with a 21st century spin that integrates the idea of sustainability and futurism. We aim to come out quarterly but as a small independent publishing house publishing dates are necessarily fluid.

SOME HELPFUL GUIDELINES

» Send Features, Op/Eds, reviews, and experimental articles to contribute@undergrowth.org

» Features: 1000 word minimum, 3000 word maximum unless approved by the editorial staff. For longer articles, we reserve the right to serialize in two or more installments.

» Op/Ed: 700-1000 words

» Features must be the work of the contributor and properly sourced. We encourage embedded links within the text. Simple bibliographies, recommended reading and related links are certainly welcome, but not necessary.

» Imagery: Contributors are not required to submit art for articles, but if imagery is submitted, the contributor must certify that the image is either original, public domain, or is accompanied by a proper photo credit. (*Model release forms are for photographs of people appearing in articles, and you may be asked to submit one depending on the subject matter and context).

» Bio: Include with your submissions a brief bio (along with a photo if you wish).

» Proper Credit: Contributors are encouraged, where necessary, to maintain source material used in features and news articles, and proper image releases or photo credits.

» Liability: Because of our limited resources, Undergrowth cannot rigorously fact-check every Feature or Op/Ed. Thus, contributors are responsible for proper research and documentation of their work, and are liable for any statements made therein.
