Are you working on the next great Chicago novel? Maybe you have a harrowing memoir in the works or a collection of poetry? Now’s the time to share your story and get published by one of Chicago’s top independent presses. Curbside Splendor, the Humboldt Park-based publisher, is accepting manuscripts now through March 31.
Submissions must be classified as a novel, collections of short stories, essays or poetry and be accompanied by a cover letter to be considered. Curbside typically publishes between 15 and 20 books a year and most recently published Jillian by Halle Butler.

If you have a shorter piece in the works, don’t be discouraged. The press is always accepting works of fiction, nonfiction, poetry and photography for their online magazine.
