It might be simplest to say we're looking for literary fiction and creative nonfiction. Though definitions of this tend to vary, we are not looking for anything genre-heavy, as in sci-fi, romance, mystery. The typical MFA story––where developed character A undergoes conflict B and eventually reaches resolution C, perhaps with a nice objective correlative of boughs swaying in the cold breeze to close––is not going to be dismissed outright, but is at a slight disadvantage unless it grabs us from the first paragraph. We like to be both challenged and entertained. We are not above humor and satire. We realize this sounds vague and maybe even a bit dickish, and that if we keep rambling we’ll eventually contradict ourselves, so… please send us your best work.

Simultaneous Submissions are okay with us. Just let us know in your cover letter and be sure to withdraw your submissoin ASAP should it be accepted elsewhere.
