Boston Review is a nonpartisan magazine of ideas: animated by hope, committed to equality and reason, convinced that the imagination eludes political categories. Editors see each issue as a public space where people can loosen the hold of conventional preconceptions and bring this openness to bear on today's most pressing issues. Boston Review's mission requires that editors shun polemic and partisanship, uphold the highest standards of argument and evidence, value ambition and originality, seek widely diverse perspectives, and make complex ideas accessible. Boston Review has a national readership of men and women who are engaged in the challenge of today's world; who want deeper coverage of current affairs than the mainstream media offers; and who see the arts as an essential part of the human enterprise.

Accepts: fiction, poetry, nonfiction essays, and book reviews (query first for non fiction).

FICTION: From Junot Díaz, fiction editor: “I’m looking for fiction that resembles the Thirty-Mile Woman from Toni Morrison’s Beloved: ‘She is a friend of my mind. She gather me, man. The pieces I am, she gather them and give them back to me in all the right order.’ Or as Takashi Murakami puts it: ‘We want to see the newest things. That is because we want to see the future, even if only momentarily. It is the moment in which, even if we don’t completely understand what we have glimpsed, we are nonetheless touched by it. This is what we have come to call art.’ I’m looking for fiction in which a heart struggles against itself, in which the messy unmanageable complexity of the world is revealed. Sentences that are so sharp they cut the eye.”

Please keep submissions under 4,000 words. Response time is generally 2-4 months. Can submit through their online submission system or via mail.

Hemispheres is a monthly inflight magazine that interprets "inflight" to be a mode of delivery rather than an editorial genre. As such, Hemispheres' task is to engage, intrigue, and entertain its primary readers—an international, culturally diverse group of affluent, educated professionals and executives who frequently travel for business and pleasure on United Airlines. The magazine offers a global perspective and a focus on topics that cross borders as often as the people reading the magazine. That places its emphasis on ideas, concepts, and culture rather than products. It presents that perspective in a fresh, artful, and sophisticated graphic environment.

Fiction submissions can cover a number of genres. Particularly seeking stories that deal with universal issues, but framed within the context of a particular culture.

elimae, pronounced el-ee-may, and standing for electronic literary magazine, was founded by Deron Bauman in 1996 and has published essays, fiction, interviews, poetry and reviews. At the end of 2004, Bauman departed to concentrate on other responsibilities, and the editorship was assumed by Cooper Renner.

Submissions should be sent via email and contained within the body of an email. Submissions via attachment are subject to immediate deletion without reply. We are not interested in seeing simultaneous submissions, as elimae will make every effort to respond to submissions within 72 hours. Writers should submit no more than twice a month, and only once if a poem or fiction is accepted from the first submission. The author of a particular work retains all rights to a piece of work accepted by elimae, and writers who wish to submit work in translation should make sure that translation of the work is permitted. elimae takes every opportunity to post work of quality and delight: length and format, as well as publishing history of the author, are irrelevant.

The Atlantic Monthly is a magazine devoted to arts and public affairs, with a readership that is well-educated. A general familiarity with what we have published in the past is the best guide to our needs and preferences.

Seeking fiction that is clear, tightly written with strong sense of "story"and well-defined characters. Literary and contemporary fiction. Cover letters are sometimes helpful, particularly if they cite prior publications or involvement in writing programs. Common mistakes: melodrama, inconclusiveness, lack of development, unpersuasive characters and/or dialogue.

Manuscripts must be type-written, double-spaced, and will not be returned, nor will queries be answered, unless they are accompanied by a postage-paid self-addressed return envelope.
