The Georgia Review: Monday Market Spotlight
After a few weeks off, it's time to bring back the Monday Market Spotlight series. This week's spotlight is in my neck of the woods: The Georgia Review!
The Georgia Review just re-opened their submission period--as they do not read between May 15 and August 15 each year. A quarterly publication published by The University of Georgia, The Georgia Review publishes fiction, essays, graphics, book reviews, and--of course--poetry!
This literary publication has published some of the biggest names in poetry, but they publish new voices too. From the guidelines: "We seek the best work we can find, whether by Nobel laureates and Pulitzer Prize-winners or by little-known (even previously unpublished) writers."
The Georgia Review pays $4 per line for poetry, and the editors make an effort to ensure that accepted works are published within a year of acceptance. Poets considering submitting have two options: online submission manager (there is a $3 fee tied to this) or by post (no fee, but you do have to pay for postage).
