The Pegasus Review welcomes submissions of creative written and visual pieces to be represented in our upcoming Spring 2024 issue, from students and professionals in the medical field. The overarching theme to guide this year's issue is "Confluence: Healing Through Connection."

Healing is rarely a solitary effort. More often, it unfolds through the relationships and communities that surround us. Confluence refers to the coming together of two or more entities. For this theme, we welcome submissions that explore the role of connection within a healing journey: how do our loved ones and chosen communities support or complicate the process of healing? 

We are currently accepting original, unpublished work of any genre (fiction, nonfiction, poetry, visual art) that engages with our issue's theme. The deadline for submission is December 15th, 2026 at 11:59pm. 

There is no submission fee for currently enrolled medical students, residents, and fellows. We encourage working medical professionals to pay a small submission fee ($20), which will be directed towards support of medical humanities initiatives organized by the Pegasus Physician Writers group.
