The Winter 2021 issue of Little Patuxent Review launched digitally on January 31, 2021.

While the pandemic kept us from gathering in person to celebrate the launch of the issue, we managed to gather virtually. Many of the contributors from this issue submitted video readings of their pieces. Those recordings are available on our YouTube page.

Take a look at the fantastic lineup of contributors below, and order your copy of the Winter 2021 issue. Annual subscriptions are also available online.

Note: If you purchase the digital version, we will email you the journal after processing your payment.
