Puerto del Sol is a non-profit literary magazine run by graduate students from the English department [1] at New Mexico State University. It is based in Las Cruces, New Mexico and has been in circulation for over 50 years.[1]
Submissions are accepted from across the world and copies are distributed globally as well. Puerto del Sol includes works of fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, visual art and book reviews.
Puerto del Sol publishes twice a year - one physical copy and one digital issue. Work from Puerto del Sol is considered for the Pushcart Prize, O. Henry Awards, Best American Short Stories, and other awards.
In addition to publishing established authors, Puerto del Sol also accepts work from up and coming writers. Past notable authors include David Foster Wallace, George Saunders, Pam Houston, Jenny Boully, and Rodrigo Toscano.
