The LBJ: Avian Life, Literary Arts The LBJ, published semiannually, is dedicated to creative writing and birds. Its title is drawn from the term “little brown job” or “lbj,” used by birders, at once dismissively and affectionately, when struggling to identify a sparrow-like individual in the field. The LBJ, also known as the literary bird journal, celebrates these non-nondescripts and other avians in contemporary literature. The journal publishes creative nonfiction, fiction, poetry, narrative scholarship, literary journalism, and book reviews.	Poetry, Fiction, Creative Nonfiction	Yes	Yes	Aug 15 - Apr 15

The Ledge Magazine Each issue of The Ledge is perfect-bound with a full-color cover and features a wide and eclectic range of works by poets and writers of all backgrounds and persuasions. We firmly believe that superior work appeals to a wider audience than most literary journals endeavor to reach, and consider The Ledge Poetry & Fiction Magazine a truly democratic publication in that regard. The Ledge also sponsors annual poetry and fiction awards competitions and an annual poetry chapbook competition.	Poetry, Fiction	No	Yes	Oct 1 - Mar 31	Print
