Submissions of poetry are encouraged.

Submissions are now closed for issue 4.1 (The L.A. Issue). We are currently accepting submission for issue 5.1, which will appear March 2009. Please understand that response time will be considerably longer for poems submitted between now and the release of issue 4.1 (end of June).

Please read through our guidelines before submitting.

Burnside Review Please send 3 to 5 poems and a brief bio. Poems and bio should be sent as single attachment (this means everything as a single file). Word documents or RTF files are fine (please don’t send PDF’s and don’t paste poems into the body of your e-mail). The subject line of the e-mail should read: Poetry Submission-Your Last Name (i.e.: Poetry Submission-Miller).

Send them to: submissions@burnsidereview.org

Average response time is 2-4 months.

Simultaneous submissions are fine. Please no previously published work.

Payment comes in the form of one contributor’s copy. Burnside Review assumes the right to publish poems on their website as well as in the physical issue. All rights revert back to the author after printing.

We suggest reading a copy of the issue before submitting. At the very least you should read the poems here on the website, to see the kind of work we’ve published in the past.
