Profiles welcomes character-driven fiction and non-fiction — both original works and works in translation — under 5,000 words.

We’re interested in publishing character studies. We love writing that channels the author’s insatiable curiosity about other people (or their talent for self-reflection), is empathetic without bordering on apologia, and shows human nature as it is, not necessarily as it should be.

We feature work from writers living in Ireland and abroad.

We also publish visual art.

Submissions will reopen for our next issue in 2025. To be notified, follow us on Instagram or Twitter, or sign up to our newsletter.

Guidelines for our previous submission call can be found here.
