The Whistling Fire is a brave new literary community that provides a free forum for aspiring authors to share their work, gain exposure, get constructive criticism from their peers, and be part of a community of like minded individuals.
The seeds of what would become The Whistling Fire were first sewn December 2008 when a group of MFA students crowded around a fire pit to drink 2 Buck Chuck and share their work. Whistlingfire.com was born February 2009 when a group of these students decided to continue the spirit of those late night readings far beyond their little fire pit gatherings and share them with the world.
We accept poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and experimental pieces. Anyone can get published. We post new stuff weekly.
