Note about links: It is considered good form to visit a website and read several issues of the publication, as well as following the guidelines to a fault when submitting work.
The links listed on this page are gleaned from the submission cover paragraphs and bios. The assumption is that if we like your work and they like your work, we probably will like their content, at least, the poetry portion. This is not always true, but true enough on the whole.
