A Journal of Poetry, Fiction, and Scholarship

Return to Main

Guidelines and Suggestions:
 
 
 

Western Humanities Review  expects the standard format for fiction or essays typed, double-spaced, author's name and title on the first page. Poetry should be single-spaced.

Submit only one story or essay, or three to five poems at a time. (There is no need to query. Send your entire work directly.)

WHR does not accept emailed or faxed submissions

Each manuscript must be accompanied by an SASE for response and return. Submissions received without SASE will be rejected without notice.

Editors will consider simultaneous submissions, but expect to be informed. Authors must notify editors immediately of simultaneously submitted work accepted elsewhere.

We read submissions between September 1st and May 1st only. Submissions received between May 2nd and August 31st will be returned unread.

Contributors receive two copies of the issue in which their work appears, as well as a small honorarium.

Any further questions about the status of your work should be sent to: whr@mail.hum.utah.edu or the address below. Please allow 4 to 6 months for a response before contacting.
