Now open for submissions
for our 17th issue!

Newtown Literary was founded in 2012 by a small group of Queens
writers who wanted to create a written record of the literary work that
was being done in the borough. We are dedicated to sustaining a journal
that showcases excellent poetry and prose from a diverse group of writers
either born or living in Queens, NY.
Queens is home to one of the most diverse communities of people in the
world, and Newtown Literary strives to be a literary forum reflecting our
borough. Emerging and experienced scribes of all types will find a home
in Newtown Literary, and we are especially interested in making space
for words from those who are marginalized elsewhere. Furthermore, we
hope to reflect the linguistic variety of Queens. We also seek to include
the entirety of the geographic space of Queens and encourage
submissions from Far Rockaway to Astoria, Bayside to Ridgewood.
