Whitefish Review is a literary journal that has, since its founding, provided a platform for emerging and established voices alike. Based in Whitefish, Montana, the magazine draws inspiration from the landscapes and communities of the American West, yet its scope is international, publishing work that resonates with a broad readership. The journal is committed to showcasing writing that is both artful and accessible, with a particular interest in narratives that explore the human condition against the backdrop of the natural world. The submission call is open to writers of fiction, poetry, and nonfiction. While the magazine has a strong connection to the Rocky Mountain region, it does not limit itself to regional themes; rather, it seeks work that reflects a diversity of perspectives and experiences. The editorial team looks for writing that is crafted with care, that demonstrates a command of language, and that offers readers a sense of discovery—whether through story, image, or idea. For this reading period, the editors are seeking submissions that engage with the complexities of contemporary life while maintaining a timeless quality. There is no prescribed theme, but the magazine has historically favored work that is grounded in place, character, and emotional truth. Writers are encouraged to submit their strongest work, regardless of prior publication history. The review process is competitive, and the editors value submissions that are polished, original, and resonant.
