About the magazine
The Missouri Review, founded in 1978 at the University of Missouri, has long been a cornerstone of American literary publishing. Its submission manager serves as the primary portal for writers to submit poetry, fiction, and nonfiction to both the print journal and its online companion, Missouri Review Online. The journal is guided by an ethos of curatorial rigor and a commitment to fostering emerging voices alongside established ones, with a particular emphasis on work that demonstrates formal ambition and emotional resonance.
Submitting your work
Reading periodVaries
Writers should submit via the online submission manager, adhering strictly to genre-specific guidelines. The Missouri Review values polished, original work that balances craft with risk-taking. Simultaneous submissions are accepted, but notify promptly if accepted elsewhere. Reading periods vary, so consult the website for current windows. Include a brief cover letter with publication history, but let the work speak first. Expect response times of 3-6 months; patience is part of the process.
