The editors know that if you want to be a good writer, you have to be a good reader. Beside that, reading is the direct cause of a successful writing industry. Simply put, if you want to write, you must read. Here are some of the books we love.

It might take some time, but it will surely be worth it to see representation evolve the world around us.
The first volume of our literary journal, entitled "Beginnings," will be released early 2021. Cover art submissions are closed.
Writing a cover letter for submission is, at first glance, a waste of time, maybe even added stress. But in reality the point of a cover letter is not to make your life any harder. For the editors receiving your writing, a cover letter is a great way to gauge who you are and how important your writing is to you.
