Volunteer at Orion

We need talented readers and critics to come join our starship!

What Positions Are Available?

Fiction Editor and Poetry Editor positions are now filled. Thank you to those boundlessly creative literary explorers who applied. In the past, we’ve filled those positions with imaginative, bold cosmonauts who astutely understand the mission and spirit of Orion’s Belt, and we hope to do so again next year.

As always, we also need First Readers, without whom the publication could not function. We’re a professional, SFWA-qualifying magazine that receives thousands of submissions a year, and we need your help.

First Readers

If you’re interested in helping Orion’s Belt, come be a First Reader for us. You are the first round of readers here at Orion’s Belt, responsible for reading and evaluating a large quantity of work each week. Consider specifying whether you want to read short stories or poetry.

If you’d like to apply to Orion’s Belt, send a cover letter and a resume/CV to orionsbelt.submissions@gmail.com. Please tell us what position you’re looking to fill and why you would like to work at Orion’s Belt.
