RE: Fresher is a literary magazine focusing on re-imagining “tropes” in story and character. In our quarterly issues, we collect inspiration from a chosen theme and hope to explore what we see as a “trope”. We welcome submissions re-imagining, relating, and refreshing the given theme. For this issue, our trope reflects finding solace in companionship, long chats around a bonfire, and forging a home of choice–the theme is “Found Family”! We hope this theme inspires you! You are welcome to re-imagine the prompt or incorporate it how you wish, as long as it relates to our issue’s trope, it’s considered!
RE: Fresher accepts submissions of poems, short stories/prose, flash fiction, personal essays, photographs, and illustrations inspired by our current prompt. We are only welcoming AUB and BU student, staff, and alumni submissions at this time.
Our current prompt is: Found Family
Submissions will close April 30, 2024.
*Our response time is 1-2 weeks after our closing date. If you don’t hear from us within 3 weeks, feel free to reach out to re.freshersubmissions@gmail.com.
Not everything can fit in our issue, but don’t let that discourage you! We will respond to all submissions, whether they are included in our issue or not.
After reading our guidelines, please send submissions directly to re.freshersubmissions@gmail.com with a short author bio (up to 75 words) in the third person in the body of the email. Feel free to also include a few lines about the inspiration about your piece, or just to say hello 😊.
