We accept academic writing, fiction, nonfiction, poetry, interviews, art, and photography. As the crises we confront know no disciplinary or institutional divides, we welcome academic articles, poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, and art from undergraduate students across disciplines and institutions in North Carolina. Manuscripts should not exceed 20 pages. All submissions must be original and unpublished. If we find that any submitted work has been plagiarized, made using AI, etc. you will not be allowed to submit your work to any later volumes.

Manuscripts should include a title page, name, college, phone number, and a brief description of submission.
