Publishing the best poetry and fiction from emerging and established voices since 1966
Congratulations to Jacob M. Appel, GR contributor and former winner of the Robert Watson Literary Prize for fiction, on the pub day of his latest novel, Surrendering Appomattox (C&R Press, June 2019).
“Combining mystery, intrigue, and satire, Appel’s novel is a warning about how far our society has fallen down the rabbit hole of fake news and alternative facts.”
—Robert Repino, author of Morte
We’d like to wish a happy pub day to Annie Woodford, whose first poetry collection, Bootleg, comes out today from Groundhog Poetry Press. We were thrilled to publish Woodford’s poem, “All Over the South Today,” in the Fall 2018 issue of the GR.
Congratulations to contributor Khanh Ha on the publication of his latest novel, Mrs. Rossi’s Dream (The Permanent Press, 2019). Ha won the Greensboro Review Robert Watson Literary Prize in fiction for “Heartbreak Grass,” a short story adapted from the book.
Mrs. Rossi’s Dream has already won pre-publication awards and been a finalist for the 2016 Mary McCarthy Prize in Short Fiction (Sarabande Books), 2016 Many Voices Project (New Rivers Press), and 2016 Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction (Prairie Schooner).
Our latest Fall issue has arrived! The GR 104 features new work from Erin Rose Belair, L.A. Johnson, Andrew Hemmert, Forrest Rapier, Hannah VanderHart, Derek Updegraff, Elise Juska, and many more. And it even matches the snowstorm in North Carolina…
Our general submissions are now open, and we will accept short stories and poems through February 15. We look forward to reading your best work. Please see Submittable for full guidelines and to submit to The Greensboro Review.
