River & South Review open for submissions

It’s my pleasure to work with grad students in the Wilkes University low-residency MA/MFA programs. As the editorial advisor and internship supervisor for River & South Review, I sit on the proverbial sidelines to watch graduating students collect and review submissions, make editorial decisions, and then prepare and launch a multi-genre issue of new creative writing.

River & South Review is published twice annually with a Summer and Winter issue, and submissions are currently open until April 7, 2014. You’ll find the Submission Guidelines here: http://riverandsouth.blogspot.com/p/guidelines.html

River & South Review is a student-run literary journal. They seek new work by emerging writers of any age who have not gone on to a graduate writing degree. This may include undergraduates, writers without a formal education, and writers from other professions.

Spread the word, submit your work, and be sure to check out the current issue of River & South Review.
