Paying Market: Black Warrior Review
We have moved to an online submission system, which can be found at http://bwrsubmissions.ua.edu.

We read submissions year-round, though our response time is slower in the summer. The average response time for submissions is between 2 and 4 months. If you have not received a response after 4 months (excepting the summer), send a query and SASE through the mail, or email us at blackwarriorreview@gmail.com, and we'll check on the status of your submission.

Black Warrior Review is also seeking creative nonfiction that experiments, plays, and throws the occasional snowball in our faces. We call for essays that offer up a new perspective, an unvoiced thought, an overlooked association—and we hope that you will send us pieces that not only challenge us with their content, but also with their form. We prize the lyric and the language driven, both the sparsely stated and the indulgently ruminative. We look forward to reading your submission.

Please do not mix genres in the same submission.

We do NOT accept unsolicited e-mail submissions.

Black Warrior Review pays up to $150 for prose and $75 for poems, depending on availability of funds.
