What We Want
Nouveau Re:AL is seeking poetry, fiction, and nonfiction works of all genres. If you are proud of it, we want to read it.
We gladly accept works in translation, as well as hybrid or unclassifiable texts, including those with images.
We value submissions of all kinds, including works by writers and artists that identify with underrepresented and/or historically silenced communities.
Each issue contains space for a local East Texas writer’s work. If you are an East Texas writer, please let us know.
What We Don’t Want
We are not accepting academic essays or reprints of previously published works.
We do not accept the work of current Stephen F. Austin State University faculty and students. If you are an SFA alum, you may submit to the magazine no less than three years after your graduation.
