About Ploughshares:

Known for its compelling fiction and poetry, Ploughshares is widely regarded as one of America's most influential literary journals. Each issue is guest-edited by a different writer for a fresh, provocative slant — exploring personal visions, aesthetics, and literary circles — and contributors include both well-known and emerging writers. In fact, Ploughshares has become a premier proving ground for new talent, showcasing the early work of Sue Miller, Mona Simpson, Robert Pinsky, and countless others. Past guest editors include Richard Ford, Derek Walcott, Tobias Wolff, Carolyn Forché, and Rosellen Brown. This unique editorial format has made Ploughshares, in effect, into a dynamic anthology series — one that has established a tradition of quality and prescience.
