About

Founded in 2011, the literary journal bosque showcases fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and art. In addition to our contest winners, each issue highlights our bosque discovery, a first-published short story by a new writer or a story by an emerging writer, as well as the recipient of the Editors’ Prize for Poetry. While our journal is national and international in scope, we are grounded in the Southwest––our name, bosque, refers to the great cottonwood forests along the Rio Grande River. We are based in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
