Quarterly West looks for writing that is, exciting, challenging, risky, unpredictable, and different. Different stomps in. Maybe it seeps in. Sometimes, and in our favorite works, different is always already there and it strikes flint and blazes. This is what we look for.

Please submit electronically; we no longer read print submissions. Quarterly West is open for regular submissions of poetry and prose from March 15 through March 31. Our annual open-genre chapbook competition opens for submissions March 15th through April 15th and our contests in poetry and prose run in the fall from October 1 through November 1. We are open to submissions of new media, translations, and book reviews year round.
