Additional info

We read year round, though our response time may be slower during the summer months. We go to print annually in the fall. Copies. We would love to pay you with money, but our budget only allows for payment in copies (2). We nominate for the Pushcart Prize, O. Henry Awards, Best New Poets, and The Best American Series. We publish work in and between all genres: poetry, fiction, essays, and plays—we appreciate work in experimental and traditional modes.
