We are currently accepting work for our debut issue, Issue I: Tides of Memory. This issue centers on stories shaped by the sea. We are also accepting standalone Digital Dispatches for our rolling journal.​

Our North Star: Lyrical Science
We are particularly interested in Lyrical Science—writing that treats a biological fact with the same reverence as a line of poetry. We believe that the most profound scientific truths are best delivered through the lens of human wonder. Don’t just give us the data; give us the bridge that allows us to connect with it. Don’t just explain the phenomenon; capture the atmosphere of the discovery.

The Elemental Matrix
All work in Aurelia is filtered through four elemental lenses.

In your pitch, please identify which "Element" your work primarily speaks to:

Water (The Deep): Marine biology, fluidity, coastal heritage, or emotional currents.

Earth (The Rooted): Ecology, soil health, deep time, agriculture, and botany.

Sky (The Cosmic): Mathematics, physics, astronomy, and atmospheric phenomena.

Mind (The Perceptive): Philosophy, culture, art history, and human memory.

How to Pitch
Please send your pitch or completed work to aureliajournalonline@gmail.com.

Subject Line: [Element] - [Format] - [Proposed Title]

In your email, please include:

• The Core Idea: A brief summary of the piece and how it connects science/nature with prose or art.

• The Element: Which of the four elements (Water, Earth, Sky, Mind) does this fit?

Note: As a "slow" publication, our response times reflect our ethos. We review every pitch with care and will be in touch as we curate our upcoming space.
