The Core Review - Poetry

Ends on

Submissions open July 1 -- September 30; January 1 - March 31

Always free to submit.

Poetry submissions should be no more than 10 total pages of poetry, in a 12-point font. Please include a title at the top of each poem, which should begin on a new page.

Prose submissions should be up to 6,000 words, double-spaced, in a 12-point font. The Core Review accepts a variety of prose, including but not limited to fiction, creative non-fiction, flash fiction, and hybridized prose.

Visual Narrative submissions are recommended to be a maximum of 10-12 pages. Our definition for visual narrative is intentionally broad to allow for a range of experimentation, media, and genre-blurring in the work. Published pieces will appear in color online and in black and white in print.

We use Submittable to accept and review our submissions.
