Your words deserve a home. Submit your poems, stories, or essays to our monthly literary magazine and join a growing family of writers from across India.

Getting published can be a consistent journey. Sakhi Singh, a student from Delhi University, shares her excitement about her poem being featured in our monthly literary publication, Beetle Magazine. It's a great way for emerging writers to see their work in print and gain confidence.

A poet shares the inspiration behind her poem 'Wabi Sabi,' which was published in Beetle Magazine. Our magazine features work inspired by diverse themes and cultures, like this piece on a Japanese philosophy. We are always accepting submissions for the next issue.

Akshita Sharma reads her poem 'Amma,' which was published in the December issue of Beetle Magazine. We are delighted to introduce our followers to the exceptional poets featured in our magazine each month.

About Beetle Magazine: Get Featured Monthly

We don't just publish; we celebrate. Every month, we open submissions for Beetle Magazine, welcoming everything from English sonnets to Hindi ghazals. If your work is selected, you aren't just getting a byline; you are joining a cumulative prize pool of ₹50,000 and getting your writing seen by our community of thousands. It is the perfect place to exercise your creative muscle.

Why Submit to Beetle Magazine?

Many writers get stuck waiting for the 'perfect' time or the 'perfect' poem. We believe that writing is a habit, not a destination. Beetle Magazine is our answer to the question: Aapne kab likhna shuru kiya? (When did you start writing?)

What We Are Looking For We welcome diverse voices. Whether you are a student from Delhi University or a storyteller from a small town, your perspective matters. We accept:

  • Poetry: Free verse, rhymed, or spoken word transcripts.
  • Essays: Personal reflections, cultural critiques, or creative non-fiction.
  • Stories: Short fiction that hits home.

We accept submissions in English, Hindi, and various regional languages. Our editorial team reviews every entry with care, looking for authenticity and soul rather than just technical perfection.

The Process

  1. Submit: Send us your work through our official submission portal.
  2. Review: Our editorial panel conducts a blind review.
  3. Feature: Selected pieces are published in our monthly digital issue.
  4. Community: Once published, you join a network of writers who support and promote each other's work.

Your Path to Recognition

Being featured isn't just about the digital print; it is about building your portfolio as an emerging writer in India. We highlight our poets across our social channels, giving you the visibility you need to grow. If you have been hesitant about sharing your work, consider this your sign to finally send that email.
