The Howl is hibernating for the season!
Thank you to all of the talented authors and artists who have submitted their work to The Howl this year! It has been a joy reviewing your pieces, and we are so proud to give them a home. The Howl wouldn’t be The Howl without your creativity and support.
We will still be accepting new submissions, so keep creating! However, expect a slight delay in response time until the fall. We appreciate your understanding, and we hope to hear from you soon! Enjoy your summer!
Sincerely,
The Howl
