This magazine wants literary fiction (including flash) and creative non-fiction (including memoir, lyric essay, and narrative non-fiction), up to 4,000 words. “We are drawn to voices that are confident without being showy, inventive without losing clarity, and emotionally complex without sentimentality. Whether traditional or experimental, each piece should reflect serious attention to craft and leave a lasting emotional or intellectual impression.” And, “we are not the home for genre fiction, speculative work, or horror unless those elements are secondary to the language and interior concerns of the piece.” They are reading submissions for their first issue, to be launched in Fall 2025. They will award $200 each to one piece of fiction and one of non-fiction, and all submissions to the magazine will be considered for this prize.
