Résonance Journal

About

Résonance is a new open-access electronic, curated, editor-reviewed literary journal that seeks to encourage, showcase, and disseminate creative works by established and emerging writers, primarily by and/or about the Franco-American communities of the United States. The editors are also interested in literary work that explores related themes. The editors invite submissions in a wide range of literary genres, as well as reviews and translations. There has long been a need for this type of resource. Franco-American and other writers who wished to communicate the reality of this linguistic minority have often found no literary-focused vehicle with which to do so. The editors hope that Résonance will help remedy this situation.

Limited Demographic: Submissions are restricted to the Franco-American communities of the US, and those writing about them.
