LET’S GET LIT!

CONGRATULATIONS to Andrew Garvin, winner of this year’s Prufer Poetry Prize, selected by Sarah Ghazal Ali. Andrew will receive $1,000 and publication in the Spring 2025 issue of PLEIADES. Read more here: pleiadesmag.com/congratulati...

My short story, “Jordan,” has been accepted for publication by @pleiadesmag.bsky.social ! I couldn’t be more excited to debut in this superb literary journal. (Also 📸: Over-The-Rhine in Cincinnati, one of the story’s settings, which I had the privilege to visit a few weeks ago when it snowed.)

This is a special day in the day of a writer. The day her contributor’s copy of a publication where she has work arrives & she can see what it physically looks like in the world. So I got my copy of @pleiadesmag.bsky.social where my novel excerpt “Visitation” appears in print. Alt4me

Many congratulations to Pleiades contributor Amina Gautier, whose collection THE BEST THAT YOU CAN DO is longlisted for the Joyce Carol Oates Prize!! The stories “Diminishing Returns” and “Elevator” were first published in our pages. So proud of you, Amina! www.newliteraryproject.org/whats-new/jo...
