Prairie Schooner’s intention is to publish the best writing
available, both from beginning and established writers. We publish
short stories, poems, interviews, imaginative essays of general
interest, and reviews of current books of poetry and fiction.
Scholarly articles requiring footnote references should be submitted
to journals of literary scholarship.
We do NOT read simultaneous submissions, and submissions must be
received between September 1 and May 1. We do not consider work that
has been previously published anywhere, including web publications.
Please allow 3-4 months for a reply.
In principle, Prairie Schooner has no objections to the use of
pseudonyms, but we require disclosure of their use to the editor
before publication.
We encourage you to read Prairie Schooner before you submit. Sample
copies are available for $6.00 in our store
[http://prairieschooner.unl.edu/?q=sample-issues].
We look forward to reading your work!
If you have a completed short-story or poetry collection, consider
entering our Book Prize Contest, open annually from January 15 to
March 15:
