CALL-4-SUBMISSIONS: Mid American Review
Mid-American Review is an international literary journal dedicated to publishing the best contemporary fiction, poetry, nonfiction, and translations.
Founded in 1981, MAR is an official publication of the Department of English and the College of Arts & Sciences at Bowling Green State University.
MAR is proud of its tradition of featuring the work of established artists. Writers such as Carl Dennis, Rita Dove, Stephen Dunn, Linda Gregg, Yusef Komunyakaa, Philip Levine, Mary Oliver, Richard Russo, William Stafford, James Tate, Melanie Rae Thon, David Foster Wallace, and C.K. Williams have all appeared in MAR. But we also pride ourselves on our publication of new and up-and-coming writers, case in point our recent Unpublished Writers Issue.
Lastly, MAR is dedicated to introducing non-English speaking voices to our audience through our translation chapbook series. Work from MAR has been reprinted in The Best American Poetry, The Best American Short Stories, The Best American Nonrequired Reading, Pushcart: Best of the Small Presses, Prize Stories: The O. Henry Awards, New Stories from the South, Poetry Daily, and Harper's Magazine.
MAR also sponsors the Sherwood Anderson Fiction Award, James Wright Poetry Award, and Creative Nonfiction Award, as well as the Fineline Competition for Prose Poems, Short Shorts, and Anything In Between
Submission Guidelines:
Stories, poems, and essays will generally be returned or accepted within one to five months, depending on our publication schedule. MAR does accept and read submissions year round. As of now, we do not accept electronic submissions.
