Orca, A Literary Journal Renee Jackson

Orca is a literary journal edited by Joe Ponepinto, Zachary Kellian, and Renee Jackson. It contains short stories and flash fiction. We advocate the literary style of writing. Orca is published three times a year, in March, July (the literary-speculative issue), and November. Beginning in 2022 we will publish four times a year, including two literary-speculative issues. All the work we publish comes through the submission portal. Work published in Orca may be nominated for anthologies such as Best American Short Stories, Best Small Fictions, the Pushcart Prize, and others. In 2021 three of our flash fictions were included in the Best Small Fictions anthology, and one of our short stories was honored with inclusion in Best Canadian Short Stories.

Representative authors include Neil deGrasse Tyson and Avis Lang, Avra Margariti, Stephanie Dickinson, Juan Carlos Reyes, Jihoon Park, Zuneera Shah, and sid sibo.
