TRQHome

The Rejected Quarterly is unique among literary magazines. We offer quality offbeat fiction
you can't find anywhere else. But that's not to say traditional literary magazines don't have
a place. Indeed, they provide a valuable function. Knowing how good traditional literary
magazines are at their job, TRQ allows them to do the first level of weeding for us. Whatever
they want, we don't want. That's why we require our writers to submit at least five rejection
slips from other publications along with each manuscript. No other literary journal
maintains such strict standards. Then the editors select from among the best of this already
select group. What emerges always makes for engaging reading. That together with such
features as: Words from the Weiss, Schlagel Press Strategy, The Art of Rejection, and the
ever-present interview make TRQ a bargain at one and a half times the price. Subscribe,
check-out a back issue, or request that your local library carry it. First in the field of
rejection since 1998.
