About

Porchlight is an independent publication that aims to champion the rich tradition and evolving voice of Southern literary fiction by providing a dedicated platform for familiar and emerging writers to publish, grow, and connect. We are committed to nurturing new talent through curated writing contests, insightful weekly blogs, and interviews with established authors that explore the craft and culture of Southern storytelling. With an affordable subscription model and access to optional editorial services, we intend to foster a vibrant, inclusive community where the next generation of Southern voices can find their footing and share their stories with the world. Our goal is to be a warm light for voices in Southern literature.
