Compose: A Journal of Simply Good Writing is now considering submissions for our tenth issue—Fall 2017. We’re on the lookout for pieces that address the theme “Ten” (the interpretation of which we leave up to the submitter) but will also consider non-themed pieces for the issue.

Submission guidelines for poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, essays, art, and excerpts from traditionally published books can be found here.
