WELCOME TO FICTION SOUTHEAST


Fiction Southeast is an online literary journal dedicated to flash fiction. The mission of Fiction Southeast is to showcase fiction from today’s most promising writers, and to create an online literary journal that allows readers to quickly and easily access quality writing from their laptops, iPads, and cell phones.

Now Accepting Submissions for Fall 2012 Issue


We are now accepting submissions for our Fall 2012 Issue. Please see guidelines below: The editors of Fiction Southeast are interested in flash fiction (fiction of approximately 1000 words or less), particularly from writers born and raised in the south. However, while we are interested in fiction that depicts a variety of southern traditions and landscapes, we DO NOT wish to limit the journal to only southern writers. Writers from other parts of the country are encouraged to submit their work. Though we hope for creative and innovative writing, we don’t prefer one particular style or genre of writing. The only criterion we look for is quality. The journal is published online two times a year (in the fall and spring). The submission deadline for the fall issue is September 1st.... Continue Reading
