Poetry Review Submissions: Paying Markets

Hi poetry reviewers, writers, readers: here’s a document I made of paying reviews markets. Holler at me if you see something that needs to be updated/deleted/added! 🙏 I would appreciate it. Would love this to be a community resource for freelance writers to be paid for their criticism.

I suppose that when you look up from the bottom, anything could be God.

i stay up like chandelier

anyways if you couldn’t already tell – I’ve been hard at work on my second collection of poems and it’s all about (re)branding and icon(oclast)s lol 💎

been in the mood for a “rebrand” on socials but whenever the urge arises I have to take a step back & make sure it’s not just another deeply manic era

shining like I’m King; Kubrick; Flanagan 🩸

looking back, that part in The Guest where the narrator just pretends to know a group that’s meeting up for a house-share situation is such a mood

looks like the tiniest footprint!

music is the key! at least for me, always. how to hear–how to preserve–the right rhythm.

it’s nice to connect here, too! 🖤

i have such a complicated relationship with editing, depending on the poem and project. for me, it’s the rapture of writing contending with the rupture of editing. curious - how do you feel about the whole process?

positive reframing
