Interesting magazine that might be a good venue for some of our less fictional work: “This is the age of memoir,” proclaims William Zinsser in Inventing the Truth: The Art and Craft of Memoir. If he’s right, memoir will come of age in our century. As a form, it will outgrow the constraints bound upon it for so long, as the novel did in the twentieth century. Memoir (and) is a nonprofit literary journal born with these ideas in mind. Our mission is to publish traditional as well as nontraditional forms of nonfiction allied with memoir. This includes, but is not limited to, autobiography, diary, personal and critical essay, reportage, autobiographical fiction, alternative histories, “flash memoir,” narrative poetry or “poemoir” (it’s okay to groan, we did) and graphic memoir. We strive with each issue to include a selection of: * prose * poetry * narrative photography …and more. The editors particularly invite submissions that push the traditional boundaries of form and content in the exploration of the representation of self. We also just love a memoir well-told. No submission is too
unusual—modern, postmodern, or hypermodern—for us to consider. We look forward to the ways you will surprise, delight and perhaps shock us, or move us to tears. |
