BAYOU NEWS

Don't miss Bayou Magazine at AWP in Chicago. We'll be at the book fair every day, booth 412, and, on Friday, March 2nd from 6-9PM, come hear Issue 56 contributors read at a joint reception with UNO Press.

We are currently seeking visual art, illustrated or photography pieces, to feature on our cover. Each piece submitted should be no less than 300dpi and at least the size of our magazine, which is around 6' x 9'. Bigger is always better. Submit online here.

Bayou is going paperless! That's right. We're now accepting online submissions for our next issue.

We'd like to thank you all for a wonderful year at Bayou Magazine. We are so grateful to all of our contributors, readers, and staff.
