Writer’s Foundry Review is now open for submissions of poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, and visual art.


Issue 04 Guidelines


SUBMISSIONS FOR ISSUE 04 ARE OPEN FEBRUARY 10 THROUGH APRIL 10, 2025

The Review is a literary journal edited by students at The Writer’s Foundry, the MFA creative writing program at St. Joseph’s University in Brooklyn, New York.

What we’re looking for: Our MFA program is called The Writer’s Foundry, and that’s just what it is: a foundry, not a factory. We think about our journal the same way. Send us work from your woodshed: poems and stories you’ve toiled over and tweaked until they’re entirely, uniquely you. Honesty wanted. Weird is wonderful. We can’t wait to read.

Poetry: up to five pages
Fiction: up to 4,000 words
Creative Non-fiction: up to 4,000 words
Visual Art: up to three pieces

Submission window: February 10, 2025 through April 10, 2025

We do accept simultaneous submissions, but please let us know promptly if your piece is accepted elsewhere. We do not accept previously published work.

Submission fee: $3, which helps offset production costs (please email us to request a fee waiver if needed)
