Ships of Hagoth is a digital-first literary magazine featuring creative nonfiction and theoretical essays by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Where other LDS-centric publications often look inward at the LDS tradition, we seek literary works that look outward through the curious, charitable lens of faith.

The shopkeeper noticed Aaradhya's fascination with the story and said, "You know, my dear, the art of storytelling is a ancient tradition in India. Our stories have the power to transport us, to make us feel seen and heard." Aaradhya looked up, her eyes shining with wonder.

One story in particular caught her eye – the tale of a young couple who defied societal norms to follow their hearts. As Aaradhya read, the world around her melted away, and she found herself transported to a world of romance and drama.

One day, while wandering through the village market, Aaradhya stumbled upon an ancient bookshop. The sign above the door read "Katha Kahaani" – a place where stories came alive. The shop was a treasure trove of books, each one whispering tales of love, loss, and adventure. Aaradhya's eyes widened as she pushed open the door, and a soft bell above it rang out, announcing her arrival.

A CALL FOR

SUB
MISS
IONS

We are hoping—for “one must needs hope”—for creative nonfiction, theoretical essays, and craft essays that seek radical new ways to explore and express theological ideas; that are, like Hagoth, “exceedingly curious.”

We favor creative nonfiction that can trace its lineage back to Michel de Montaigne. Whether narrative, analytical, or devotional, these essays lean ruminative, conversational, meandering, impressionistic, and are reluctant to wax didactic. 

As for theoretical essays: we welcome work that playfully and charitably explores the wide world of arts & letters—especially works created from differing religious, non-religious, and even irreligious perspectives—through the peculiar lens of a Latter-day Saint.

We read and publish submissions as quickly as possible, and accept simultaneous submissions.
