The fourth anthology of The Rebis will focus on The Devil (XV).

We are looking for original writing, artwork, and any other form of creative expression that you dream up inspired by the fifteenth card of the Major Arcana. Your work should be deeply intimate, inspired by your personal relationship to the archetype. Send us work that is subversive, provocative, erotic, and deliciously alive. Concepts we’re considering span power, oppression, rebellion, freedom, shame, sin, pleasure, self-knowledge, and self-sovereignty... but these ideas are simply thought-starters. We encourage you to take an imaginative, deconstructionist lens with your work. Our readers want to be delighted and surprised; they want to learn something new and discover diverse perspectives.

To submit, please fill out this form.

Writing: We are especially interested in publishing experimental and genre-bending work (creative non-fiction, short stories, or flash fiction). Fiction, personal memoirs, researched articles, interviews, and poetry are all welcome, too.

Artwork: Photography, illustrations, paintings, comics/graphic stories, digital art, and collage art are all welcome. Multimedia work that weaves print + digital into an immersive and/or interactive experience is always cool to see. 

We enjoy seeing work incorporating multiple collaborators—art and writing that pair together, dual bylines, an epistolary project, etc. If you are submitting as a collaborative project, please submit one time only, but include the names, bios, and links to examples of work for all people involved.  

Please submit previously unpublished work. By “unpublished” we mean that it hasn’t appeared in any print or digital publications beyond your own social channels or website.

To submit, please fill out this form. Submit your work by January 31, 2025. Contributor decisions will be made in February, and complete/final work will be due in late March. 

If you have any questions about the submissions process, please email submissions@therebis.com. We love workshopping ideas and helping you bring your concepts to life.

We do not accept AI-generated submissions and require disclosure of any AI used at any point during the creative process.

Payment: The Rebis believes in compensating writers and artists for their work. Right now, we can afford to pay each contributor $200 for accepted work for our print publication.
