The New Guard is a contest-centered, independent literary review, publishing 35+ emerging writers each volume from the United States and abroad. They proudly publish in print and have short pieces published online on their BANG! page. Currently their print literary review is closed to submissions as they transition into their new press, High Frequency Press. More can be found at www.highfrequencypress.com [5].

We host writing contests in fiction and poetry and welcome international submissions. We juxtapose tradition with experiment, the up-and-comer with the established writer, and create a new dialogue. Please read our submission guidelines for more information.
