Updated: Jun 15

LitMag is devoted to publishing writing that stirs the intellect and the soul—work that moves, challenges, and ultimately lingers. Their editorial team seeks writers who pair emotional resonance with sharp craft and ideas that are both expansive and intimately felt. They gravitate toward work that fuses artistic risk with insight, and they remain committed to championing original voices through their print journal, online features, and annual literary awards.


Each year, LitMag presents three distinguished awards across the genres of short fiction, flash fiction, and poetry, named in honor of literary greats whose work redefined the limits of language and form.
