Friends & Readers: are any of you proficient in WordPress web design? At Length could occasionally use the careful attention of a pro! Please message us if interested! Thanks.


"[W]hat am I to do / about beauty, about / my fear that beauty // has made me arrange / every experience in a word / and image too neatly // for them to bear / much semblance to life," @PaisleyRekdal writes in her wonderful long poem, "Whistlejacket." atlengthmag.com/poetry/whistle…


Dear Writers: At Length has updated its submissions guidelines in Fiction. We do not accept genre fiction of young adult fiction and have clarified this on our new website. Thank you.


Did you know that Terrance Hayes drew pictures while writing American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassins, a haunting collection of 70 poems written in the wake of the 2016 election? We're happy to feature them in our new From the Archives section. atlengthmag.com/art/two-visual…


We were thrilled when Jonathan Farmer, the former EIC of At Length, sent us this essay on Elizabeth Bishop. Erudite and smartly argued--but not beholden to usual strictures of peer review--it's a model of the kind of criticism we'd like to publish. atlengthmag.com/poetry/everyth…


One of the delights (and challenges) in redesigning At Length was preserving the journal's 20-year archive of exceptional writing. Take Page Hill Starzinger's lovely poem, "Gest," which explores her parents' decline in a mixture of long and short lines. atlengthmag.com/poetry/gest/

As we enter the summer internship season, I'm reminded of how essential @Carson_Wirtz, @atlengthmag's intern, was to rebooting the journal. Thanks, @WabashCollege, for supporting Carson, who's now a Managing Editor at a national literary journal!

“[H]ow do they bear this heat Who / knows who can say what will change,” Joanna Klink writes in "Sarracenia," as she explores our climate crisis and her relationship with her father in language that is colloquial & catastrophic, meditative & urgent. atlengthmag.com/poetry/sarrace…


At Length would like to announce the addition of a Fiction Editor, Preeta Samarasan, author of Evening Is the Whole Day and Tale of the Dreamer's Son. We're so grateful to have Preeta aboard! preetasamarasan.com

We just sent out our first acceptance note for At Length, a solicited poem, and we can't wait to share it with readers. Coming to a search engine near you.


Happy Friday! Today we highlight Tayler Heuston’s short fiction piece, “Ghost in the Graveyard.” We enjoy this story’s captivating premise, and its ability to keep the reader guessing as to what will happen next. Be sure to read at the following link: atlengthmag.com/prose/ghost-in…


Today we would like to highlight David M. De León’s poem, “The Cats of Old San Juan.” An equally enlightening and powerful piece, it is just as quick and intelligent. Check it out at the following link: atlengthmag.com/poetry/the-cat…


In the meantime, swing on over to atlengthmag.com to read 20 years of long poems, art criticism, novel excerpts & more. We're in the midst of a site redesign--expect more translations!--so stay tuned. 2/2


Dear Readers: After 2 decades at the helm, Jonathan Farmer is stepping down as the editor of At Length. In his place, you'll find @derek_mong & @annieofisher We're grateful to Jonathan for entrusting us with the journal and for his decades of work. atlengthmag.com 1/2


New poetry! “All / my life sacrificed to the arrogance of cities, / their empires of skin.” A child, a city, a scar, wealth, music, memory, and identity consort in a swift series of lyrics from @jmaebarizo atlengthmag.com/poetry/small-e…

New poetry! In Dawn Potter‘s sequence, a 19th century woman alternates between diary entries and poems, trying to make sense of her life, her obligations, her hunger for holiness, and a feeling of disaster or deliverance just out of view. atlengthmag.com/poetry/three-w…
