The New Orphic Review publishes fiction and articles up to 10,000 words in length. It publishes poetry ranging from sonnets to free verse, but the editor-in-chief, Ernest Hekkanen, who describes himself as “an opinionated visionary beholden to no one,” is  tough on poets. He is a man who appreciates versatility and range, and The New Orphic Review exemplifies this.

Submissions by mail only. Include an SASE.  If you are from the U.S. or Europe, enclose an IRC. The editor-in-chief doesn’t respond by email to submissions. If you want a response, enclose an envelope! I’m tired of receiving U.S. submissions with U.S. postage on the SASEs. U.S. stamps are useless in Canada. If your post office doesn’t deal in IRCs, enclose some U.S. currency that can be turned into suitable postage.
