NOW ACCEPTING SUBMISSIONS
West Marin Review, Volume 04
Prose, Poetry, and Art
Submission Deadline: September 1, 2011

West Marin ReviewReview is now accepting submissions of literary works and visual art for Volume 4 to be published in 2012. To help cover printing costs for Volume 4, we have instituted a $10 submission fee.

To submit, please follow the following guidelines meticulously. Note that we do not accept electronic submissions:
  1. Please submit only previously unpublished work.
  2. Prose (fiction and nonfiction) or Poetry: Submit written works on 8 1/2” x 11” loose (unbound, unstapled, unclipped) pages. These pages should not show your name or address. Submit prose and poetry using 12-point type, in either Times New Roman or Courier, with one-and-a-half-line spacing. (Remember, no name or address on these pages.) Please number prose pages.
    Note that written submissions will not be returned, and notifications will be made by email, so no need to enclose an SASE.
    Length: Prose pieces, no more than 6,000 words in any one piece. No more than 3 prose pieces may be submitted. No more than 3 poems may be submitted, no more than 25 lines per poem.
  3. Visual Art: Submit an individual piece or up to 4 works of art. Works must be submitted as good quality color prints on 8-1/2” x 11” hard copy. (Note: Art selected for publication will require a hi-resolution scan, 300 dpi, sized no less than 8-1/2” x 11”.) Please indicate “top” or “bottom” of the piece on the back.
    If you wish art materials returned, you must provide an SASE of adequate size with sufficient postage.
  4. On a SEPARATE sheet than your submission(s), include a cover page with your name, mailing address, email address, and telephone number, and the title of each work enclosed. Remember NOT to put identifying information on the work itself. The cover page will be removed and a number assigned; submissions will be reviewed anonymously by an editorial committee of West Marin writers, editors, poets, and artists.
  5. Attach a check for $10.00 made out to “TBLA for WMR” with your submission. If you are submitting in more than one category, you need only pay once.
