Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Kitchen Table Quarterly amplifies work that lays our histories bare— cultural history, political history, geographical, personal— and explores how they weave together to create the way we live. We are looking for work that spills secrets and wipes the dust off of old memories. We want honesty. We want an education.

Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
Short and simple is best. Honestly, the work is the most important thing. Cordial, a dash of personality, and keep the emphasis on the work.
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
Honesty, foremost. We say in our mission statement that we want an education, and we do. We want to feel people's histories, feel where they come from and how they got here. We want to feel like we walked down that road, too.
What Advice Do You Have For First-time Submitters?
Your work will speak for itself. Be brave, send your best. And make sure your submission is tailored to the magazine. If we read something great, but it truly has nothing to do with our editorial focus, we won't be able to accept it.
Who Is Your Ideal Reader?
Everyone! I mean it. We want all readers to come and see their stories reflected in Kitchen Table Quarterly, and we want them to find connection and kinship through reading the work of other writers, as well.
