Laurel Moon, Brandeis University's oldest literary magazine, is accepting submissions for our national issue. This issue follows a simple mission: to feature the innermost voices from a group of diverse, young writers.
For over twenty years, Laurel Moon has published the best fiction, creative nonfiction, and poetry that Brandeis students have to offer. From light-hearted and fun to bleak and desolate, the work from these students ranged widely so that everyone could relate to the meaning behind an undergraduate’s experience. And for the past few years, to truly capture that meaning, Laurel Moon has accepted submissions from undergraduates enrolled at any accredited US college or university. To continue this tradition, we would appreciate if you would forward our call for submissions to students at your university who might be interested in submitting their work.
The submissions deadline for the upcoming national issue is October 15, 2022. For this issue, we will be accepting original, unpublished work written in English. We will consider up to five poems and three prose works from each author, as well as up to fifteen pages of content in another form. We will also be accepting ten pieces of artwork and photography per submission.
Additionally, Laurel Moon will be offering personalized feedback to writers who wish to receive guidance on any creative writing piece that they present if they submit before September 17. Writers will receive comments from our many talented editors and have the option to resubmit their revised work for consideration.
To see our full submission guidelines and instructions, please see the submissions page on our website.
Thank you for your time,
Lindsey Odorizzi and Samara Miller
Editors-in-Chief
