 Cheers from the Wasteland is a place-based journal featuring creative work by people with ties (loose, iron strong, and everything in-between!) to San Jose, California.  Through words, images, and sounds, this journal aims to add contours to the wasteland, and surface the undeniable beauty—both underlying and blatant—that sets our city apart. ​ 

We are currently on hiatus but may re-open submissions in the future.
