Curbside Splendor Publishing

We publish literary fiction and poetry based in contemporary urban (and sometimes sub-urban) settings. Our goal is to support the independent publishing process and to promote urban-themed writing.

The Acentos Review publishes poetry, fiction, memoir, interviews, translations and artwork by emerging and established Latina/o writers four times a year. We welcome submissions in English, Spanish, Spanglish and indigenous languages.

Women in REDzine

We look for writing that is surprisingly exceptional, not necessarily the in your face brilliance, but the kind of writing that surprises you with story and a clear focus and voice. We love new writers, adore established writers, and embrace the I've-Never-Done-This-Before writers. If you have a story, a poem, an essay, or something that you haven't quite classified yet, but you think it could stand up to being read, then please submit it. Our staff loves to read!
