The Writers’ Journal Announces Vol. 1: Live & Learn

We are excited to begin accepting submissions to our first journal collection entitled Live and Learn. Learning is a lifelong endeavor, where each passing year brings us new lessons and insights in which we continually evolve and grow. How often have you said, “If I only knew then what I know now.”

We welcome that story, that learning experience, and we encourage new and experienced writers to share their work.

Theme: Writers are welcome to submit memoir, fiction, creative nonfiction, and poems in which someone has learned a lesson: i.e., a story about why you should have swiped left on that dating website, swallowed the words better left unspoken, or read the Crazy Glue instructions more carefully. Whatever your experience, we welcome your work. Be creative, think beyond the obvious, and surprise us. Whether your story leans towards the whimsical, practical, or fanciful, we look forward to reading your submissions. However, no gratuitous sex, violence, or hateful rhetoric is acceptable, and no AI-generated stories or poems, please.

Submissions are now closed.
