We publish travel writing, short stories, poetry, artwork, photography, and personal essays. Our content at Allegory Ridge focuses on three main categories, each of which is further divided into three subcategories. 

We are currently accepting submissions for the eighth issue of our magazine, and our nonfiction anthology, Allegheny.

EXPLORE - Experiencing a place that is not your own

• Nature — the great outdoors, our natural environment, Earth in all her glory
• City — metropolitan areas, urban wonders, tiny towns in rural landscapes
• World — places outside the United States, foreign countries, faraway lands

CREATE - taking inspiration and molding it into a tangible form

• Art — physical mediums of expression, crafting, short films
• Writing — poetry, personal essays, short stories
• Photography — photo portfolios, professional/amateur photographers, photo essays

GROW - challenging yourself to build a better life

• Self — self-improvement, self-care, self-expression, self-acceptance
• Design — curating well-balanced spaces, home decor, style trends, architecture
• Society — politics, pop culture, relationships, what you need to know about what's going on
