HELLO & WELCOME!

Glimmer Train is, after nearly three decades, pulling out of the station for good.

So many stories we've read since we started in 1990! A person might think they'd begin
to seem all the same, but that's never happened. Without fail, your stories have moved,
surprised, and changed us. It's been a great honor to read your work.

Glimmer Train is one of the most respected short-story journals in print and has actively championed emerging writers from the beginning. The magazine is represented in recent editions of the Pushcart Prize: Best of the Small Presses, New Stories from the Midwest, the O. Henry Prize Stories, New Stories from the South, Best of the West, New Stories from the Southwest, Best American Short Stories, and The Best American Nonrequired Reading.
