Flock opens space for boundary-pushing literature by publishing emotionally resonant work that is strange yet familiar, surprising but grounded, and softly experimental in form, language, or content. Flock has long been home to a broad range of styles, with a core interest in risky and bold work that might not find a home at more traditional journals. We publish creative nonfiction, fiction, and poetry twice a year: a general issue in the spring and a themed issue in the fall, each with selected audio and web features.
