Introducing our sections pt.2: Creative Nonfiction!! (woop woop)

This three person dream team is also lead by the amazing and talented Kristina! The Creative non-fiction team is dedicated to pieces that have emotional depth while developing themes outside of the self. They are interested in memoir works that connect people, and reviews that uncover new readings and have been focusing on well-organized and strong prose built on poignancy.

They may be few but there is nothing that they can’t conquer, so pls submit to them. They’re waiting…. ;)

Introducing our sections: Fiction!!

The amazing Fiction team is led by the wonderful and talented Kristina! The Fiction team is dedicated to pieces with a strong voice and interesting narrative. They value new perspectives, and love writing that stays on the mind. Recently, they’ve been enamored with punchy dialogue and works that aren’t afraid of playing with form.

They are very serious about fiction so you better submit and read their selections in the upcoming volume or else… jkkk the fiction team loves you
