About

21 members set this magazine as a Favorite.

The Glacier is an online literary journal based at Indiana University South Bend. The journal accepts submissions of poetry, visual art, and short fiction. We are interested in experimental, post-confessional, and poems about the environment. We are interested in comedy in poetry and fiction. We are interested in collage that utilizes text as one of its elements.

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions, and they do not offer monetary payment for accepted submissions. The fee is USD $3.
