Avatar Review is an online review that seeks to
display the highest quality writing and visual art.
Our purpose is to provide exposure to authors and
artists and give temporary shelter to their work.
We provide a forum in which writers and visual artists
can share in this electronic medium. We believe in
money for art and will shamelessly promote artists'
work in the hope it can be sold.
Submission Guidelines: We publish
poetry, short fiction, essays, visual art and prose
poems. We look first for the finely crafted piece
and believe in Pound's dictum, "Fundamental accuracy
of statement is the sole morality of writing." We're
open to all forms, but have a bias toward clear, concise,
understandable work that communicates, surprises or
disturbs—writing that bears witness to the world we
live in. Short works (under 1500 words for prose and
100 lines for poetry) stand a better chance of acceptance.
Simultaneous submissions and previously published
work are welcome as long as acknowledged as such by
the author. Send no more than three to five poems
or two pieces of fiction per submission. All submissions
are to be cut-and-pasted into the body of the e-mail.
For Artwork, send attachments in jpg or gif format.
