What they accept
Latin American Literature Today (LALT) welcomes submissions of translated texts (Spanish-English and Brazilian Portuguese-English) of contemporary Latin American prose throughout the year; creative prose, including fiction, has a maximum length of 5,000 words and is sent by email to the Translation Editor with the original and translation as separate documents plus a cover letter stating that publication rights have been acquired, and self-translations are not accepted for the fiction section. Submissions must not have been previously published, simultaneous submissions are allowed if the translator withdraws the work when it is accepted elsewhere, evaluation takes a minimum of eight weeks, and LALT's publication guidelines state that it offers no financial compensation and that there is no cost to submit.
