The Avenue has extended its call for submissions for publication. There’s still time for you to share your creative work with your peers in the Writing Studies community!

The  SJU Writing Studies literary magazine, The Avenue, has extended our call for submissions for the Fall 2023 issue! Submissions due by Halloween, October 31st 2023.

We want this issue to reflect the breadth, depth, and strength of  current students and recent alumni of the SJU Writing Studies Program.

Think pieces that wowed your classmates; pieces that elicited praise from your professor; and pieces that exhibit your writing at its best!

We invite fiction, poetry, non-fiction, prose, etc.; submission limit is 2000 words/8 pages of double-spaced work. Excerpts from longer pieces are welcome. We also welcome images/photographs of artwork.

Submissions should be in size 12 font, double-spaced; please submit your polished piece as a word document attachment and email to theavenue@sju.edu; do not include any identifying information in your piece, as submissions will be reviewed anonymously.

Submit your creative pieces via email to theavenue@sju.edu no later than Halloween, October 31st

Questions or concerns? Please reach out to theavenue@sju.edu.

We’re looking forward to reading your piece!
