Grain

Award Winning Literary Quarterly 

 

Grain Magazine publishes engaging, eclectic, and challenging writing and art by Canadian and international writers and artists. 

Published by the SWG, Grain has earned national and international recognition for its distinctive content. No bias in terms of form, style, or genre, and the editors welcome submissions that are diverse, idiosyncratic, intelligent, even idea- or concept-driven. The editors accept poetry, fiction, and literary nonfiction.

Grain has an nine month submissions period which runs from September 15 to June 15 each year. For subscription information, submission guidelines, contest rules, or to read a selection from our current issue, please visit Grain online at grainmagazine.ca

We thank Cheryl & Henry Kloppenburg, Barristers and Solicitors, Saskatoon, for their ongoing support of Grain and the Short Grain Writing Contest.
