Winter Issue: Submissions are Open!

A Coronal
  by William Carlos Williams

New books of poetry will be written
New books and unheard of manuscripts
will come wrapped in brown paper
and many and many a time
the postman will bow
and sidle down the leaf-plastered steps
thumbing over other men's business.

But we ran ahead of it all.
One coming after
could have seen her footprints
in the wet and followed us
among the stark chestnuts.

Anemones sprang where she pressed
and cresses
stood green in the slender source--
And new books of poetry
will be written, leather-colored oak leaves
many and many a time.

New Forum, The Undergraduate Creative Writing Journal, is now accepting submissions for its Winter Quarter Issue!

We accept poems, short stories, and creative non-fiction by UCI undergraduates. At New Forum we are excited to provide an environment for undergraduate writers to be published and have their work heard. Published authors will be asked to read their work at our Issue Release Party where we will have free refreshments and later in the night, an open mic. We invite everyone to come and read their work. Join your fellow writers in showcasing a vibrant and diverse art.

Deadline for submission is 11:59pm on Wednesday February 17th. The Issue Release Party will be held on Tuesday, February 23rd at 8:00 PM in Humanities Gateway 1010.
