Stories should emerge from character and language as much as plot. The journal generally publishes literary rather than genre fiction; query first for stories longer than about fifteen pages.
Well-crafted, lively literary or personal essays; literary criticism is not wanted, though essays engaging literature in the context of lived experience are welcome. Query first for essays longer than about fifteen pages.
Poems should demonstrate an original voice and use multilayered, evocative imagery in language shaped by awareness of sound and meaning. No length limit per poem; send no more than four poems at a time.
