Submission period extended

Our search continues for new poetry, short stories, and more

August is quickly coming to a close and we are way behind our usual benchmark on submissions for the upcoming aois21 annual. As this is our last endeavor, we want to go out with a bang so we are extending our submissions period until September 15th!
So that's 15 extra days to submit your poetry, short stories, essays, excerpts, photography, art, audio, and video today! Not only do we want you to send your work in, we also want you to join us for the release party.
We'll be back at Walls of Books in Washington, DC for the release party on Friday, October 19th at 6 pm, replacing our previously scheduled Poetry Open-Mic. Instead we'll be opening the floor for our contributors to share their work. The event will be live-streamed on the aois21 Periscope feed and then shared on the aois21 YouTube channel and video.aois21.com.
Get your submissions in now and help us make this last edition the best!
