About
When asked what we are looking for in our work, we can simply say, writing that causes that little shiver. We don't have restrictions on form or content, and we are interested in the established to emerging writer. We want to hear from a diverse range of voices and experiences; we want our ideas of a well-crafted poem to move beyond the MFA workshop and into the mettle of life and experience. We want our understanding of the world to expand, leave us silent and struck, lead us in song and in praise. We editors want to be challenged out of our comfort zones. We are looking for the well-written but also, more importantly, the well-lived.

Nonfiction Open
We seek to include a broadening of poetic voice. We're looking for language that sparks interest, topics that stir. What we're interested in: a conversation between two poets, an interview, a review of a recent poetry publication or poetry-focused event, a discussion of a poetic trend, an examination of poetic history, imaginings, writerly habits, and other poetry-related fodder.
