A project of Embajadoras Press

Do not submit here! This project is permanently closed to submissions (December 2023). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

We at La Presa are dedicated to presenting the voices of writers from Mexico, the US and Canada, in English and/or Spanish, in a literary arts journal published by Embajadoras Press. Although linked geographically, politically, economically, and socially, we North American writers rarely find our work sharing a single journal that reflects who we all are. By filling this gap, La Presa, we hope, brings our communities closer.

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.
