About the magazine

Write Bridge is an annual writing residency and publication program operated by Anamcara Press, an independent literary press based in the United States. Founded to foster cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary dialogue, the program invites writers of poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction to develop new work within a supportive, editorially engaged environment. While the residency itself is relatively short in duration, it emphasizes sustained mentorship and the production of a public-facing anthology or digital publication, positioning writing as a bridge between communities, languages, and lived experiences. The ethos is one of literary generosity and rigorous attention to craft, rather than competition or spectacle.

Editorial focus

In each edition of the Write Bridge , readers are encouraged to “mind the gap” as writers and artists with powerful voices explore topics that broaden thinking. The Write Bridge presents two opposing ideas for creators and readers to delve into—seriously or in fun—in order stretch imaginations, to move beyond boundaries, and to bridge the gap.

Writers should approach Write Bridge as they would a small, curated anthology: with a clear sense of their own voice and a willingness to revise. Review the submission guidelines on the Anamcara Press website carefully, as genre and length parameters may shift annually. Submit polished work that demonstrates a distinctive perspective and an openness to editorial collaboration. Because the program is small-scale, personalized cover letters that articulate why this particular community and press align with your writing goals are more effective than generic appeals. Expect response times typical of independent presses—often several months—and avoid simultaneous submissions unless explicitly permitted.

The Write Bridge journal was created by Anamcara Press in 2021 in celebration of art and community, in support of authors and artists in their creative endeavors.
