This fall, we are seeking playfulness and comedy for our “Humor” theme. Connect with the citizens of cream city whether by making us laugh, cry, wince, or smile — regardless, you have to make us laugh. We are not seeking simple satire, narratives and poems with characters and narrators that serve as mere setup for gratuitous punchlines. We want your most humanizing humor: serious humor; dark comedy; playful, nuanced and vivid writing that also makes us laugh.

An important change in our Theme submission guidelines

Per usual, we will be accepting submissions for our theme issue from August 1, 2008, to November 1, 2008. New this year, we will also be accepting non-themed submission during this time. Please clearly mark theme submissions as “humor” on the outside of the envelope. Therefore, our Fall 2009 issue, in which submissions from 1 Aug 08 to 1 Nov 08 will be published, will feature humor-themed content and general submissions.

For more information on how and where to submit, visit our guidelines.
