Submission Information
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.
- We welcome reviews and interviews.
- Simultaneous submissions are welcome as long
as acknowledged as such by the author.
- Previously published work accepted on occasion--although
we prefer unpublished material. Author must supply appropriate credit.
- 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. Upon acceptance, we
may request a Word document to verify formatting.
- For artwork, send attachments in jpg or gif
format.
- The editorial preference is not to accept
artists, writers, or poets for successive issues.
