Horseshoe Literary Magazine Launch

The creators of a new literary journal in western Newfoundland want it to be a top-tier publication that showcases the best work the region’s writers have to offer. With one issue of Horseshoe published online, founders Adam Beardsworth and Tom Halford are calling for submissions of fiction and poetry for the second issue. “We simply want to publish some great literary work and call attention to the talent we have here, both in western Newfoundland and in Newfoundland in general,” said Beardsworth. He said they want Horseshoe to be a top-tier literary journal, like Riddle Fence in St. John’s, and Halford added they hope to feature a wide range of literature. “It doesn’t have to be exclusively about or from western Newfoundland,” said Halford. “But anything that, you know, takes your readers on a journey that is somehow connected to this part of the world would be wonderful.”

With readings from Matthew Hollett, Nathan Elliott, Shelly Kawaja, Sabrina Pinksen, and Shoshannah Ganz, Lindsay Bird, Dan Murphy, Tony Fabijancic. Plus a few virtual readings as well.

Join us at the RAC as we help launch Horseshoe Literary Magazine with an evening of readings.
