Submissions

Submissions are open from April 1 to September 1 of each year.

We accept submissions by email only. Any alum of Boston University’s Creative Writing Program is eligible to submit — including students who graduated from the Playwriting MFA when it was still part of the Creative Writing Program.

Please send your short story, essay, or poems (five maximum, in one document) as a Word document to editor Annaka Saari at crwr@bu.edu. Indicate whether the piece has been published elsewhere (and, if it has, include the name of the publication in which it first appeared). Include your name, contact information, genre of study at BU, and BU graduation date in the body of the email. If your work is accepted, you will be asked to provide a short, third-person bio.
