Make sure your piece is specifically about drinking. Specifically. There's a large backlog, so it may be a while before you hear from Modern Drunkard. If at all. If you don't hear from the magazine within two months, you may deduce your submission wasn't selected.

Accepts poetry, fiction, and articles.

FICTION GUIDELINES:
Accepts all manner of fiction, though experimental fiction is less likely to be published. Hemingway, F. Scott, Parker, J.P. Donleavy and Bukowski are good models to follow. Follow--not mimick. Modern Drunkard is looking for stories with a positive view of drinking -- if they wanted boo-hoo ballyhoo they'd go to an AA meeting. The story should be imbued with drinking. If alcohol doesn't rear its lovely head on the first page, you're submitting to the wrong magazine.

Putting a drink in the hand of your protagonist does not a drinking story make. If you can replace the booze with coffee and the plot isn't affected, you're trying to pull a fast one. Avoid writing about writing and being a writer. While it's commendable that you wrote the piece while hammered, that's no excuse for haphazard grammar and bizarre punctuation. Leave that to the Editors, they're quite good at it. Exclamation points do not make a sentence more powerful. Not even triple exclamation points.

The vast majority of the magazine's submissions are fiction, so realize the competition is ferocious. They get a lot of angry rants and "Me and My Buddies Went Out Drinking Last Night" type submissions, so that sort has to be exceptional to make the cut.

Accepts poetry, fiction, and articles.

ARTICLE GUIDELINES:
This category is most in demand, and the range is broad. It could be historical (Drinking in Colonial America, Ancient Greece, etc.), humorous, or instructional.

Put some time in it, if you just dash something off without doing any research, it most likely won't be accepted. Make sure you have a point.

Example articles include: The 10 Best Things About Booze, 86 Rules of Boozing, Andre the Giant, and Soused Star Trek

Fashion Forum is a semiannual magazine that directly targets a very upscale reader interested in profiles and service pieces on upscale designers, new fashion trends and traditional suiting. Lifestyle articles – including wine and spirits, travel, cars, boating, sports, collecting, etc. – are upscale top of the line (i.e., don't write how expensive taxis are).

Do not submit personal essays. We run a few but commission them. No fiction or single product articles. In other words, an article should be on what's new in Italian wines, not about one super-special brand.

Be prepared to write like you know the upscale lifestyle. Even if you only own one jacket, or stay in hostels, remember our readers, for the most part, don't even know about hostels! Experience in a specific category, or direct access to designers for profiles is a huge in!

Buys 20-25 articles/year, 10-15 columns/year. Query with published clips.
