Tips From the Editor
We are interested in publishing “unknowns,” as well as well-established writers. A writer who has published absolutely nothing will be read the same way as a prize-winning “name” writer. We are always looking for work that speaks vividly and imaginatively to universal human experience. We are not usually interested in works of fantasy.
