    The Fiddlehead

    From the Editor

    First published in 1945, The Fiddlehead is Atlanta Canada’s international literary journal and Canada’s longest living literary journal. Many – now well-known – writers have found their first home in our pages, and they, as well as some of our editors and assistants, have gone on to win Canadian and international awards and prizes. We publish short stories, poems, book reviews, and the occasional personal essay. Our full-colour covers feature the work of New Brunswick artists. Do not look at this journal as old! It is experienced; wise enough to recognize excellence; always looking for freshness and surprise.

    Submissions

    The Fiddlehead is open to good short fiction and poetry in English from all over the world, we’re looking always for interesting work from both new and established writers. Work is read on an ongoing basis; acceptance is around 2% (we are, however, famous for our rejection notes). Our editors are always happy to see new work. Apart from our annual contest, we have no deadlines for submissions. Basic requirements for submissions are: Typed, double-spaced, spell-checked, and not over 4,000 words for fiction. Not more than 10 poems per submission (3 to 5 is best). No electronic submissions are accepted at this time.
