We seek literary fiction that exhibits artistic merit, complex characterization, and emotional resonance. Literary fiction emphasizes character-driven narratives, psychological insight, and thematic richness over plot-centric storytelling. It reveals the human condition through subtle nuances and sophisticated prose.

Examples of writers we admire include Alice Munro, Tobias Wolff, Jhumpa Lahiri, Sally Rooney, and Ocean Vuong, whose works demonstrate precision, depth, and thematic complexity.

We welcome stories that thoughtfully explore family dynamics, cultural identity, moral ambiguity, or the quiet revelations that shape our lives.

• Format: Standard manuscript format (double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman or similar serif font, 1-inch margins)
• Length: Up to 10,000 words
• File Type: Microsoft Word (.docx) only
• File Naming: Please name your file as "LastName_FirstName_StoryTitle.docx"

Keep your cover letter brief. You may include a synopsis or brief introduction, but this is optional. We prefer to let the work speak for itself.

We accept submissions that have utilized AI tools for research or editing. However, works primarily generated by AI will not be considered. The creative voice must be authentically yours.
