Issue 2.2 is scheduled to be released at 11:11 a.m. on June 11! We can’t wait to share the amazing work of our contributors with you all. Check back soon for more details, and check out our other issues below in the meantime!
If you missed us this time and still have a piece you want to share with us, keep an eye out for our next call in August!



Eleventh Hour Literary is a biannual journal from Binghamton University. Our editors, all members of the Professional Staff Senate and writers themselves, are no strangers to the crushing rite of “submission” — a word that is often hand-in-hand with “rejection.”
In the spirit of this, Eleventh Hour Literary will accept stories from anyone, regardless of affiliation with the university. However, to be featured, your piece must have gone through rejection and revision. Our mission is to create a community of writers who uplift each other in their perseverance. If you have faith in your piece, send it our way, regardless of genre.
Stephen King’s first novel, Carrie, was rejected at least 30 times. Madeleine L’Engle’s Wrinkle in Time received 26. Jack London received over 600 rejections before publishing a single story. So don’t give up now — the clock is still ticking!
