Memoir (and) is a new literary journal that will be hitting new stands this spring. Looks like they need submissions. Here’s the deal:

Memoir (and) is an up-and-coming journal for the exploration of memoir as “the” genre of the 21st century. We are based in Sausalito, California, just north of the Golden Gate Bridge.

We strive with each issue to include a selection of prose, poetry, graphic memoirs, epistolary memoirs, narrative photography, lies and more. The editors particularly invite submissions that push the traditional boundaries of both form and content in the exploration of the representation of self, and are especially looking for graphic memoirs. Memoir (and) is available in print in over 600 bookstores in U.S. and Canada, including Borders, Barnes & Noble, Hastings and independent bookstores.

Our next reading period is May 1, 2008 through August 15, 2008.
