"Art is what remains of a civilization after it has crumbled or been sold into history. Art is its only claim to immortality. Only art demonstrates that at that time, in that place, there was something excellent. It is art, therefore, which makes life worth living."
Kent Thompson
The Fiddlehead is just that art.
Canada's longest living literary journal, The Fiddlehead is published four times a year at the University of New Brunswick, with the generous assistance of the University of New Brunswick, The Canada Council for the Arts, and the Province of New Brunswick.
First published in 1945, The Fiddlehead is known as a WHO'S WHO in Can. Lit. Many - now well-known - writers have found their first home in our pages, and they, as well as some of our editors and assistants, go on to win awards and prizes across the country.
Do not look at this journal as old! It is experienced; wise enough to recognize excellence; always looking for freshness and surprise.
We publish short stories, poems, book reviews, and a small number of personal essays.
Our full-colour covers have become collectors items, and feature the work of New Brunswick artists.
The Fiddlehead sponsors an annual writing contest and awards two prizes of $1,000 each.
Listen to Fiddlehead Poets on CBC Radio!
We invite you to listen to eight of our poets reading and discussing poetry, writing, and life with Rachel Cave Bauer on CBC Radio's 2006 Summer Shift program.

Instructions to Authors
Submissions
The Fiddlehead is open to good writing in English from all over the world, looking always for freshness and surprise. Work is read on an ongoing basis; acceptance is around 2% (we are, however, famous for our rejection notes).
We don't actually publish guidelines, but our editors are always happy to see new work. Responses can take from 1 to 6 months. Apart from our annual contest, we have no deadlines for submissions.
Requirements for submissions are pretty much the same as those for other journals:
Typed, double-spaced, spell-checked, and not over 4,000 words for fiction.
Not more than 10 poems per submission (3 to 5 is best).
We usually respond within four months, sometimes earlier, sometimes later.
Pay is approximately $20 per published page, plus a complimentary copy of the journal.
The Fiddlehead buys first serials rights only; copyright remains with the author.
Fax or email submissions are not accepted; please do not send diskettes.
Please include a SASE, that is a self-addressed stamped envelope, and Canadian postage, International Coupons or cash (Canada is a sovereign country, U.S. stamps do not work here) for replies, and send to:
The Fiddlehead Campus House 11 Garland Ct UNB PO Box 4400 Fredericton NB E3B 5A3 Canada
