Ploughshares Guest Editors

Each year, Ploughshares has two Guest Editors choose a selection of material that appears in the Spring or Summer issue. Guest editors are invited to solicit up to half of their issues, with the other half selected from unsolicited manuscripts screened for them by staff editors. This guest-editor policy is designed to introduce readers to different literary circles and tastes, and to offer a fuller representation of the range and diversity of contemporary letters than would be possible with a single editorship.
