At the NNJ we feature short fiction, essays and slow journalism, as well as poetry - the best new writing we can find, from established writers and beginners, pulling from as many voices and perspectives as can be mustered.

If you think you have a piece that would suit the NNJ, you can submit your piece for Issue 2 before the 16th of May.

The New Nottingham Journal is a print publication which successfully launched in 2025, taking its cue from Nottingham’s rich culture of writing, both past and present.

The NNJ draws inspiration from the city’s rich history of publications like the original Nottingham Journal, a newspaper which ran from the early 18th century until the 1950s - where writers like Graham Greene and J.M. Barrie learned their trade.
