Queen City Writers is a refereed journal that publishes essays and multimedia work by undergraduate students affiliated with any post-secondary institution. We are currently seeking submissions for the fall 2015 and spring 2016 issues; we operate on a rolling deadline basis and will consider students' works as we receive them. Please encourage strong writers/composers from your spring and summer classes to consider submitting their work.

Our three reviewed sections include Inquiry, 2,500-5,000 word critical essays informed by research; Multimedia, video, audio, or mixed media pieces of 15 minutes or less and accompanied by an artist's statement that explains purpose, motivation, discussion of medium, and so on; and Storming the Gate, featuring 1,250 to 2,000 word essays by first-year writers in any discipline. We also publish reviews of works relevant to our focus; snapshots of writers and/or their experiences; and comments or responses to work in current issues. We seek thought-provoking pieces from any disciplinary perspective that explore questions and problems related to:

Writing
Rhetoric
Reading
Pedagogy and teacher-training
Literacy
Popular culture and media
Community discourses
Multimodal and digital composing
