New Assistant Editor at Redux

Welcome to Redux’s new assistant editor for poetry!

Clara Jane Hallar, assistant editor, is a poet currently residing in Spartanburg, SC. She will graduate from Converse College June 2017 with a Master of Fine Arts degree of Creative Writing with an emphasis in poetry. Her creative work is inspired by poets like W.S. Merwin and Jim Harrison to Carolyn Forche and Elizabeth Bishop, and her critical research dives into the world of political poetry, defining the purpose of poetry to go beyond the page with the spirit of Adrienne Rich's "the personal is political" in mind. She is a co-collaborator of a poetry reading series called "Pints & Poets" in partnership with Converse College, Hub City Tap House, and MFA Director Rick Mulkey. Pints & Poets is a creative cask series that celebrates the local Carolina poetry community and has three events per academic fall and spring semesters. Read more about the series here. 

Redux Open to Submissions February 15 – March 15

EDITED ON 3/16/17 TO NOTE THAT REDUX IS NOW CLOSED TO SUBMISSIONS.  If you submitted work during our open reading period, we hope to make all our decisions before June 1, 2017.


Redux Open to Submissions February 15 – March 15

Redux, the online journal of previously published work, is accepting submissions of fiction/poetry/essays during an open reading period: February 15 to March 15.  We’re looking for literary work of high quality that has been previously published in a print journal but that is not available elsewhere on the internet.  Our mission is to bring deserving work to a new, online audience.  Preference will be given to older pieces (i.e. published before 2012).

No novel excerpts, poems that appear in chapbooks, or pieces published in anthologies…even if these books are presently out-of-print.

Please read our guidelines for important submission information.  If your work is accepted, you will also be asked to write a short “story behind the piece” essay a la the Best American series. Pieces must be available in a Microsoft Word file.

Authors we’ve published include Margot Livesey, Sandra Beasley, Robin Black, R.T. Smith, Michelle Boisseau, Kelle Groom, Erica Dawson, Catherine Chung, Walter Cummins, Lee Martin, Dave Housley, and Terese Svoboda.

We look forward to seeing your work!
