Sin Fronteras/Writers Without Borders Journal is an annual journal published in Southern New Mexico by Sin Fronteras/Writers Without Borders, a non-profit organization whose mission is to encourage a community of writers, develop an audience for those writers, and give voice to those whose voices may not be heard. Issue #16 has just been published; the cover art is by Helen Stork.

Sin Fronteras is now accepting poems, short stories, essays or short plays for issue # 17. Submissions must be unpublished but are not limited to writers of the Southwest, and “borders” can be interpreted broadly. Send 3-5 poems or one short prose piece to:
