Welcome to Amethyst Review, a new publication for readers and writers who are interested in creative exploration of spirituality and the sacred. Readers and writers of all religions and none are most welcome.
Amethyst Review invites you to submit up to five poems (of any length) and/or prose pieces of up to 2000 words, fiction or nonfiction. Simultaneous submissions are ok as long as you notify us if a submitted piece is accepted elsewhere. No previously published work at this time please.
We ask that your work engages in some way with spirituality or the sacred. This is not a place for proselytizing, but for thoughtful and respectful inquiry. Work submitted should be of a high literary quality, and show awareness of the context of contemporary poetry, fiction, and creative non fiction. No reviews at this time please, though this may change. Alas, there is no payment for contributors (or editors) at this time.
Please email all submissions to: Sarah dot Poet at gmail dot com with the subject head Amethyst Submission. Work should be pasted into the body of the email or attached as an MSWord doc. Include a short author bio (c. 50 words), with relevant site links if you wish.
Depending on the volume and quality of work received, the Review may publish new work weekly or more frequently. We aim to respond to all submissions within one week. As we are just getting started, first publications are planned for January 2018 onwards. Please follow Amethyst Review for regular updates.
We look forward to reading your work!
