Make a Tax-Deductible Charitable Gift to American Short Fiction:

Since we printed our first issue in 1991, American Short Fiction has become a nationally celebrated journal. Stories from our pages have been honored with both praise and prizes, including publication in Best American Short Stories, Best American Non-Required Reading, O. Henry Prize Stories, and Pushcart Prize: Best of the Small Presses. In 2019, American Short Fiction was honored to receive the esteemed Whiting Literary Magazine Prize, and the journal has twice been a finalist for the National Magazine Award for Fiction, publishing important work by Joyce Carol Oates, Dagoberto Gilb, Roxane Gay, Ann Beattie, Nathan Englander and so many others.

We couldn’t do any of the work we do to publish and promote contemporary literature without the generous support of individuals, foundations, and corporations. We are a non-profit arts organization, and charitable contributions to American Short Fiction are tax-deductible. Thanks for your friendship, and for believing—as we do—that creating great literature is a collaborative endeavor between authors, publishers, and supporters like you.
