Yalobusha Review is a journal of new writing, founded in 1995 and operated by the University of Mississippi MFA program. We seek to showcase work with a dynamic voice, confident style, and rigorous ideas. Currently, we publish fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, and hybrid/experimental work.

We are committed to being a space that celebrates emerging writers and voices from a wide range of communities. We nominate exceptional work for the Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net Anthology. Additionally, each spring we also award the Barry Hannah Prize for Fiction and the Yellowwood Poetry Prize. We have been lucky to publish the work of notable writers such as Carmen Maria Machado, Melissa Broder, Stella Wong, and Michael Chang.
