Description
Note: this publication may close early for submissions if they reach a submission quota; these early closures will not be tracked in this listing.
Note: if published here, wait a year after publication before submitting again.
In short, we value well-polished, well-crafted stories that move us.
Send us the story that only you can tell, where subject matter isn’t the story but adds another layer to a rich and complex journey of thought. Likewise, craft decisions—point-of-view, structure, chronology, etc.—that enrich meaning and understanding, that have purpose beyond pure wit, whimsy, boundary pushing, or aesthetics.
As we read, we remain committed to founding editor Rebecca Starks’ three tenets:
A strong voice
A view from elsewhere
That it be fully realized
