We are so pleased to announce that after a (long!) two year hiatus, we’re bringing back something we love dearly: Issue 19 (Fall 2015) will be dedicated solely to nonfiction!

While we love fiction and poetry, we’re so excited to see your nonfiction pieces—we feel it’s another fantastic way to gain some perspective on the region. Also like fiction and poetry, we’re looking for pieces that embody the Midwest—good, bad or ugly—pieces that represent the people or places here, your own experiences, things you’ve seen or witnessed—all in the name of helping to catalog the region in a way never done before.

Submissions will be open May 1 – May 31, and we’re looking for creative nonfiction, essays, and anything and everything in-between.

Check out our previous nonfiction issue, Issue 11 (Fall 2013).
