The Southern Quill, Dixie State University's literary arts journal, is now open for submissions. We accept poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction, visual art, and work from young writers and artists (12-17). All living in Utah and Clark County, Nevada are welcome to submit. Poetry and fiction submissions from DSU students are eligible for the Annie Atkin Tanner Memorial Scholarship and the Naythan M. Bell Award.

We do not accept previously published work, regardless of format or circulation. We accept simultaneous submissions so long as you withdraw your submission if your work is accepted elsewhere. Submitters between the ages of 12-17 must submit all categories of work to the Young Adult section. Please include a short biography of 50 to 100 words with your submission. We will include it in our publication should we accept your work. Upon publication, all rights will revert back to the author. SQ contributors will receive two copies of the issue in which their work appears as compensation.
