In flash, we are looking for pieces that combine the lyricism of poetry with the impact of short prose to surprise, challenge, and move the reader.
You may submit 1 or 2 pieces of flash prose in one file, with a total word count of 1,500.
Please submit prose poems as Poetry.
Full Critiques (Fiction only): In fiction we offer a full critique of your manuscript from a highly qualified reader. You will receive an editorial letter that details your submission’s strengths and weaknesses and potential editorial next steps. We vet our readers carefully, and have recruited those who are gifted at and enthusiastic about the critique process. Comparable critiques from independent editors can cost over $100.
