February 2016 Update:
*Please note that due to the volume of submissions, we are no longer able to respond as quickly as usual. This is also because we want to ensure your work has been taken seriously and will be given adequate attention. Therefore, you may not hear from us until just before or a couple weeks before the release of our latest issue in October 2016. We genuinely apologize for the inconvenience, as we know how agonizing the wait for a response can be.

How The Publication Process Works:
Because we are so devoted to providing these exceptionally crafted pieces of poetry and fiction to our audience, we generally publish material as soon as we can in the "Recent Publications" section of the journal. As we accept more pieces over the course of time, we then transfer it to the archived section of the site thus assembling an issue comprised of poetry and fiction.
