Floyd County Moonshine is a literary and arts magazine localized in Floyd, Virginia and the New River Valley. We accept poetry, short stories, and essays addressing all manner of themes; however, preference is given to those works of a rural or Southern/Appalachian nature. We welcome cutting-edge and innovative fiction and poetry in particular.
DEADLINE ISSUE 2.1 September 30.
SUBMISSIONS
Literature
All manuscripts should be submitted electronically to floydshine@gmail.com. We accept previously published material and simultaneous submissions. We acquire one-time rights. Please send your manuscript as a WORD attachment. Cover letters are optional. Short stories and essays should not exceed 8,000 words. Please type the subject/title of your email submission as your full name, and provide a brief biographical sketch accompanying your submission.
Art
Floyd County Moonshine is primarily a literary magazine; however, we reserve pages for several art submissions each issue. We print in black and white; therefore, art in conducive mediums, such as pencil or charcoal, would be most suitable. We encourage, but not restrict, subject matter that expresses an agrarian aesthetic. We would also appreciate art which epitomizes the unique cultural spirit of Floyd. All art submissions should follow a similar protocol as literary submissions.
