So excited to share our new, beautiful issue with all of you! Share widely!

if you’re not too exhausted from AWP madness, THE SPECTACLE is open until the 15th….

New Q&A with Jack Jung, translator of Yi Sang’s poetry, and David Ehmcke, our poetry editor. thespectacle.wustl.edu/?p=2234 “Experimental decadence is not a choice that you make to escape from reality; it’s a necessary reaction to that reality.”

Check out our new masthead: thespectacle.wustl.edu/?page_id=120 @serxaphym and Kristin are so honored to serve as co-editors-in-chief, and our genre editors are absolutely phenomenal. Keep sending your most ferocious, decadent work!

The Spectacle is still open for submissions. 🔎✨ free and we pay $50 to each contributor.

@djvorreyer Hi! You can go ahead and send poems. The waiting period applies to each specific genre individually.

@Spectacle_Mag Since I had art in your last issue, am I allowed to send you some poems? Or does the waiting period apply to all genres? Wanted to check so I don't break your guidelines. Thanks.

Submissions are officially open!

Issue 14 is coming soon… so why not get ready to submit to issue 15? Opening for submissions tomorrow and staying open until February 15th! Send us your most exquisite.

@mk_wlsh @candidlyalights Grateful to have your work!

Friends! I translated two short essays by Yi Sang, and now you can read them in the great @Spectacle_Mag. Thanks to @candidlyalights for his steady editorial hand thespectacle.wustl.edu/?p=2109

Grateful to the writers and artists featured in our new issue! Work by Yi Sang translated from the Korean, Joanna Kavenna, Lisa Hsaio Chen @Qidurian, Sebastián Páramo @sebastianparamo, Emily Barton Altman @embarton, and more...

Delectable. No awkward small talk.

As part of our new era, we’re holding a logo design contest. Share widely! We’d love to see what you dream up.

Reminder that submissions are open (with an adjusted window). Send us your most alive, most pressing, most dynamic art and writing. Send us something new to believe in. We would be honored to spend time with your work. We pay all our contributors $50 and submissions are free.

We value relationships between written and visual arts, and aim for work that remind us that lenses matter—they focus, distort, conceal. We are committed to publishing work from under-represented voices, including BIPOC, women, LGBTQIA+, people who have disabilities, &c

We welcome and embrace all styles, genres, and modes of writing, but we are particularly interested in vivid, striking imagery and language that lingers with us long after we’ve finished reading. thespectacle.submittable.com/submit
