An e-version of Our spring issue is available: Click on "News"

In a time of conflict and uncertainty, our forthcoming journal of contemporary writing is an outstretched hand.

Inside, you’ll find poems about disabilities, the joys of nature, Mother’s Day grief, loves lost/loves found, and several personal essays about books and belonging. You'll discover fiction that travels to medieval Europe, stories that bring our Past into the Present, and stories from an imagined Future. On one page, someone’s renewed, and on another, someone loses a hat.

This  inaugural issue is by, from and for Danville, Illinois, and we’re grateful to the Danville Public Library for support. Among the contributors, local authors all: 4 or 5 young poets published for the first time, a new Danville resident who writes in her native Hindi then translates her poetry into English, and work from writers spanning six decades. 

Submissions for our Autumn issue are open until September 30
