Publisher’s description: Published since 1996 as print journal, The Baltimore Review re-launched as an online, quarterly journal in 2012. This doesn't mean that we've fallen out of love with the printed book. Work accepted for online publication will also be collected for annual print issues. The journal features the work of Baltimore-area writers, as well as writers from around the world.
The BR accepts short story, creative nonfiction, and poetry submissions, as well as photos for contest issues. Contest submissions are accepted for two issues per year, and contest themes are announced on the website. A new category, beginning with the spring 2012 issue, is video (YouTube or vimeo format). Want updates on new issue releases, submission deadlines, contest themes, and events? Subscribe on this page: http://baltimorereview.org/index.php/about (you can unsubscribe at any time).
Writers are encouraged to read the editors’ comments, the submission guidelines, announcements and other items of interest on our blog, and, of course, the work of our contributors at www.baltimorereview.org.
