Editorial Focus
Fence has a mission to redefine the terms of accessibility by publishing challenging writing distinguished by idiosyncrasy and intelligence rather than by allegiance with camps, schools, or cliques. It is also Fence’s mission to encourage writing that might otherwise have difficulty being recognized because it doesn’t answer to either the mainstream or to recognizable modes of experimentation.
Tips From the Editor
Please read and subscribe to Fence, and check out the books we have published. If you dig what you read, then send us your literary art during one of our open submission periods.
