Red Wheelbarrow (since 2000), formerly Bottomfish, believes that everything that crosses the transom merits deep attention. It believes that beauty and meaning will inhabit wildly varied and unexpected tones and styles.

Our journal is well produced, eclectic, tough-minded, open, lyrical, passionately socio-politically engaged. We value quiet and craft, the gaze into nature, the deft image, the startling leap, meditative consciousness—and great use of language. We honor and crave all of those qualities in art and in one another.

Send us your good stuff. E-mail submissions to weisnerken@fhda.edu [4]. Then if we publish your work, join us at WORKS/San Jose in fall to read at our publication celebration. Also submit to annual Red Wheelbarrow Poetry Prize in our submission portal.
