About the organization
Riddle Fence is a Newfoundland-based literary and arts journal founded in 2007, with a mandate to publish emerging and established voices from the province and beyond. Its name evokes the dual impulses of puzzle and boundary—a fitting metaphor for a publication that prizes work testing the edges of genre and form. The journal maintains a distinct editorial character shaped by its geographic remove from major North American cultural centers, fostering a sensibility that is at once regional and outward-looking. Over time, it has become a reliable venue for creative nonfiction, fiction, poetry, and visual art, with a particular commitment to work that is formally alert and emotionally precise.
Programs & opportunities
8 listedTaking part
Riddle Fence accepts creative nonfiction year-round, as indicated by its rolling call. Submit polished work that demonstrates a clear voice and structural intention; the editors favor writing that earns its revelations through craft rather than declaration. Familiarize yourself with recent issues to gauge tone and length preferences. Simultaneous submissions are generally acceptable if noted, but withdraw promptly upon acceptance elsewhere. Include a brief, professional cover letter and adhere strictly to genre guidelines; unsolicited work outside the stated categories is unlikely to be read.
