From the The Prairie Journal guidelines:

Since 1983 The Prairie Journal has been publishing quality poetry, short fiction, drama, literary criticism, reviews, bibliography, interviews, profiles and artwork. Our wants are few. We do not consider simultaneous submissions.
 
All submissions should be on 8.5 by 11 inch standard bond (recycled preferred) with paper clips. Please write your name and address on each sheet. Double space and retain a copy for your records. Never send originals through the mail and this includes artwork. After acceptance you may be asked for a disc. We still do the formatting. Although some authors like to run off copies with postage only for reply, we like an envelope with sufficient postage for return so we can offer editorial comments and suggestions. Most of the work we receive is publishable. The process is one of selection (based on space and sometimes theme) not rejection. No foreign postage or metered return mail. No U.S. cheques due to bank charges but a postal money order is fine. You can obtain Canadian stamps by mail. We will not be replying until we are preparing an issue (twice yearly) so please be patient.
