Editorial Focus

The Chicago Review of Books presents Arcturus, an online literary magazine of new perspectives in fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, and hybrid genres.

Tips From the Editor

We have no restrictions on the content we publish, except that we’re passionate about publishing new perspectives —new ideas, new voices, new worlds, new challenges, new ways of seeing, etc.—a theme that can take an infinite number of shapes, including speculative fiction, experimental poetry, political essays, narrative reportage, and virtually everything else.

To submit your work, email the editors at arcturusmag@gmail.com. Please address the appropriate editor (see the masthead at the bottom of the About page) and use the subject line: “GENRE: Title of Work (ex. FICTION: My Story).” Provide a brief introduction and attach your work as either a Word document or PDF file. We normally respond to submissions within one month.
