Call for Submissions from Washington Square

We've just had word from Martha Collins through a translators' mailing list that Washington Square, the student-edited and -produced journal at New York University’s Graduate Writing Program, is now accepting submissions for its Summer/Fall 2009 issues. They are looking for previously unpublished English translations of (non-English) poems and short stories of serious literary intent.

Manuscripts must be received by March 1, 2009, and accompanied by a SASE and cover letter with author’s name, address, phone number, email address, and title(s) of submission(s). Poetry submissions should not exceed 10 pages/5 poems. Fiction submissions should not be in excess of 20 pages.

Submissions may be sent by post to the attention of the 'International Editor', Washington Square, Creative Writing Program, New York University, 58 West 10th Street, New York, NY 10011, or as attachments by email to washingtonsquarereview@gmail.com.
