Filter Literary Journal Accepting Submissions

Just a couple of days ago, I submitted a few poems to Filter, a local literary journal produced by poet (and now editor) Jennifer Borges Foster.

Filter is a pretty unique literary journal. It is completely handmade, as in Jennifer, like, sews these books together herself, and the journal comes in a limited run of 200, spicing it up with a preciousness that many small presses hope for.

The first issue of Filter debuted last year with poems from Rebecca Hoogs, Kevin Kraft, and Kary Wayson, among other Seattle poetry heavyweights. Filter also publishes prose (fiction, nonfiction, essays, etc.) and art; although the art is typically solicited, Filter will consider unsolicited art submissions of high quality (Stick figures and macaroni necklaces are a no-no, I think.).

Filter is currently accepting submissions for its second issue. Submissions can be sent to ed.filter@gmail.com. The deadline is May 15.
