Note: if accepted here, wait two years before submitting again.
We are looking for new and under-published voices. Submit what you’re worried to send elsewhere. We want pieces that are nonobvious and circumvent the familiar, that breakthrough abstraction to examine a moment or concept from the side, rather than straight on. All submissions must be standalone pieces (no excerpts), although we accept single poems from a larger series of works. Things we wish we saw more: • Endings that stick with the reader • Characters with complex motives • Narratives with high stakes • Consistent voice throughout the piece • Pieces that reflect wider views and deal with current cultural and political discourses • Revealing core truths in an unexpected way • Making the familiar unfamiliar
