(Entries from outside the U.S. will receive only the prize issue due to additional mailing costs.) $1,000 prize awarded to winners of both genres. We expect to announce winners in March 2011. All submissions will be considered for standard publication in Meridian. Fiction writers may submit one story of 10,000 words or fewer. Poets may submit up to 4 poems.

Issue 25 is here, featuring our 2010 Editors’ Prize Winners and an interview with poet Temple Cone, in addition to some excellent (and gutsy) new fiction and poetry. We hope you’ll order the issue or consider a subscription. In addition, our new editors have been selected for next year. Hannah Holtzman will take over as Editor in Chief, Lee Johnson will act as Fiction Editor, and Wanling Su will be Poetry Editor. I look forward to reading their selections. Of course, that means that this is my last post as Editor. I hope you’ve enjoyed our 2010 issues and will continue to support Meridian. I can’t thank you enough. |
