Hot Metal Bridge (journal)
American literary magazine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hot Metal Bridge was the official literary magazine for the University of Pittsburgh’s graduate Department of English.[1][2][3] Founded in 2001 as Nidus, Hot Metal Bridge published fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, literary criticism, and book reviews.[4] Hot Metal Bridge had an open submissions policy and strove to publish a combination of established writers along with unpublished or emerging talent.
In summer 2009, Hot Metal Bridge held the first annual Hot Metal Bridge Fiction Contest, judged by Tom Perrotta.[5]
Hot Metal Bridge has not published since 2019.
