At a recent editorial meeting, the Writer’s Edit team decided that we’d love to start publishing short stories and poems on our beloved online mag again. We want to celebrate the best of the best, which is why we’ve opted to publish only one short story and one poem per month… Check out our submission guidelines below!

Going to be some fierce competition I imagine, between the writers.. and in the editing room.
A little healthy competition never hurt anyone, Dean! (Famous last words…) Thanks for stopping by 🙂
