Puerto del Sol is a non-profit literary magazine run by graduate students from the English department [1] at New Mexico State University. It is based in Las Cruces, New Mexico and has been in circulation since 1960.[1]

Puerto del Sol includes works of fiction, poetry, creative non-fiction, visual art and book reviews. It publishes twice a year - one physical copy and one digital issue. Work from Puerto del Sol is considered for the Pushcart Prize, O. Henry Awards, Best American Short Stories, and other awards.

In addition to publishing established authors, Puerto del Sol also accepts work from up and coming writers. Past notable authors include David Foster Wallace, George Saunders, Pam Houston, Jenny Boully, and Rodrigo Toscano.

The editor-in-chief is MFA faculty member Richard Greenfield, and past editors include Kevin McIlvoy, Evan Lavender-Smith, Carmen Giménez Smith [2] and Lily Hoang.

Puerto del Sol also hosts the digitally curated Black Voices Series and hosts an annual competition in both poetry and prose.
