Pacifica Literary Review
Literary Magazine
We want unique voices and risky writing; send your predictable stuff to those hoary old journals who’ve been printing the same thing since 1970. Professors and baristas will receive equal consideration. Sonnets and memes will receive equal consideration. If it is excellent and gives us the feels, we’ll print it.
