About the Fiction Open

One of the main reasons we started Glimmer Train is that we love to read; stories provide insights into the larger world, into the minds and lives of others, and, over time, reveal shifts in human concerns and perspectives. The Fiction Open welcomes all subjects, all themes, and every writer.

Thank you for letting us read your work!



Every story we publish is unsolicited, and 86% of the stories we accepted last year came to us directly from the writer.
That's exactly how we like it.

One of the most respected short-story journals in print, Glimmer Train Stories is represented in recent editions of the Pushcart Prize, New Stories from the Midwest, O.Henry, New Stories from the South, Best of the West, and Best American Short Stories anthologies.
