Scribograf Writing Submissions – August 2026

This Issue's Theme

Metamorphosis: Breaking The Cocoon

Birth, death and change are inevitable. We as humans are changing at every moment; from one transformation to another. We break through endless cocoons, fighting for change, and sometimes shying away from it. But every time one is broken, we have more space to grow. Grow with us, as we explore the ever-changing definition of this phenomenon, in the next issue of scribograf.

Submissions must be original, unpublished, and written by you, with no plagiarism or AI-generated content in any form, and must clearly align with the theme while following the specified word limits. You may submit a maximum of two works, but only one will be selected. Each submission must include a brief explanation of the piece’s idea or theme and a short author bio of 30–50 words written in third person. Please submit your final draft with a clear title and proper paragraph structure, without unnecessary styling. Selected pieces may undergo minor edits for clarity and consistency, with meaningful changes discussed with the writer, and contributors are expected to respond to editorial communication within the given timeline.
