Writers

Oregon Humanities magazine is now reading nonfiction submissions for our Summer 2022 issue, “Memory”. Writers with all levels of experience are encouraged to submit. Oregon Humanities connects people and communities through conversation, storytelling, and participatory programs to inspire understanding and collaborative change. The theme for our Summer 2022 issue is “Memory.” Submissions will close on April 11, 2022. We want to hear stories about remembering and forgetting, both as individuals and in our communities. We’re interested in all sorts of memories: treasured and troubling, real and false, public and private. We’re looking for nonfiction pieces that explore the people and events we choose to commemorate and those that are buried or erased, justly or unjustly. Explore how memory works and why it often doesn’t. Consider the things that aid remembering—lists, journals, souvenirs, monuments—and those that help with forgetting. Email all questions and submissions to editors@oregonhumanities.org
