Do You Have Any Cover Letter Advice?
Introduce yourself, not your writing. We will only read cover letters if we are interested in the writing itself.
What Do You Look For In A Submission?
Brave, bold writing devoid of dogma. New voices. Powerful short-form fiction.
Who Is Your Ideal Reader?
Our ideal readers are interested in beautiful writing and stories that reflect experiences/perspectives that vary from their own direct experience while also tapping into the commonalities of our human condition. Big-picture thinkers, artists.
