• Additional info

  Although we accept work from everyone who wishes to submit, we particularly encourage work from LGBTQIA+, women-aligned people, and BIPoC voices. If you’re a creative writing undergraduate, graduate student, or member of creative writing faculty at a college/university, we’d love to hear from you. As ever, international submissions and submissions of translated work are welcome.
