Thank you to all who submitted work for the fall 2019 issue of Smoky Quartz. The editors are now in the process of reading and selecting work. Any work submitted after September 15th, 2019 will be considered for future issues.
Also, the Smoky Quartz site will be undergoing an update to a new format with new features in the next few weeks. During that time, the site will not be accessible. But we will send an announcement once it is online again.
Thank you again!

Help us to be ever faithful gardeners of the spirit, who know that without darkness nothing comes to birth, and without light nothing flowers. ~ May Sarton
Leaving its two-year hibernation behind, Smoky Quartz celebrates its return with a poetry-packed Spring 2019 issue. Twenty-three poems contributed by eleven poets take us from formal to free verse with stops at 7-Eleven, a wood pile and Hades. Flowers are bountiful and migrating birds are back. The issue also features a photo essay and photographic art.
