Fiction Temp Closed
We prefer scene-driven stories that are strange, off-kilter, and sometimes ruthless. For long form fiction we are interested in both traditional literary fiction and experimental fiction. We especially like fiction with well rounded characters who take us on journey’s that linger. For flash fiction we look for brevity, stories that unapologetically rearrange our understanding, and use the most beautiful language doing it. We also value inclusivity and hope to publish work informed by a diverse range of perspectives and experiences.

Poetry Temp Closed
We prefer poems with a strong lyric voice and sense of urgency. We’re looking for poems that push against social norms which block hyperconfession and raw emotion, ones in deep conversation with the personal and public and how they collapse into one another. We love hybridity, diversity and philosophical endeavors contrasted with sharp physicality. We’re seeking disjunction with intention. Make us laugh, and make that laughter guttural. Our opinion may not be correct, but it is final. Do send us the edgiest poems you’re fearful of submitting elsewhere.
