The Canary Press

There are presently no open calls for submissions.

Please note that The Canary Press is on hiatus. As such we are not accepting submissions. We are planning to reopen our submissions portal at the end of 2016. In the meantime, may you read and write wonderful stories and not spend too much time on twitter. 

The Canary Press is a short story magazine based in Melbourne, Australia. We feature new and local writers alongside some of the finest short story writers from Australia and overseas.

Our issues are an eclectic but carefully curated collection of stories. Some are written by international luminaries, others are about a unicorn working as a surgeon. Who you are doesn't matter to us so much as what you can do with a story. 
Our arms and inboxes are open!
