Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Hindsight strives to highlight voices from all walks of life by publishing creative nonfiction in all its forms. We aim at nurturing a wide diversity in both our contributors and our content. Anything from poetry to memoir to comics is considered for our annual publication in the spring, all through blind review, and all creative nonfiction. With submissions open year round, authors and artists have the opportunity to be published in our print journal and growing online platform.

Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
The usual: keep it short, mention no more than three previous publications (unpublished is fine), and read our instructions carefully. Definitely read back-issues, and only send creative nonfiction.
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
Strong writing with evident knowledge of the many sub-genres of creative nonfiction--not only memoir. In poetry, we should see you know why you're lineating if you're not using an existing form, and poetry also must be nonfiction. We need more humor.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Read our previous issues. We began because our undergrad writing (with respect to MFA programs) surpassed that of most other literary magazines (Volume I, Issue 1 is online as evidence). Then feel free to send us something new to us that still fits.
Do You Have A Favorite Unsolicited Submission Discovery Or Anecdote?
We're proud to practice blind review and have done so from our second issue on. But the writing in our very first issue in 2013 continues to amaze me--that one class produced enough good work unedited by me (students edit each other) for a journal.
Who Is Your Ideal Reader?
You. But also those unlikely to read literary journals. Our beautiful design invites anyone to turn perhaps to an arresting color spread with only a couple of paragraphs taking their time, and then fall into strong writing they can't put down.
