Submissions for the Fall 2019 issue (Vol. 14, No. 2) of the Apple Valley Review are open through September 15, 2019. At the moment, we are particularly interested in translations and short essays.
We accept personal essays and short fiction (preferably between 100 and 3,000 words, though the word count is flexible) and poetry. Prose poetry, translations, flash fiction, and writing with genre elements (such as fabulism/magical realism) are welcome. Please send work that is original, previously unpublished, and in English.
All work published in the journal is automatically considered for our annual editor's prize. The recipients from 2018 and 2017 were Robert Radin for his essay "Noche Triste" and P. Ivan Young for "Sunken Town" and two additional poems. Several pieces from the journal have later appeared as selections, finalists, and/or notable/distinguished stories in Best American Short Stories, Best American Essays, Best of the Net, Best of the Web, New Poetry from the Midwest, storySouth Million Writers Award, and The Wigleaf Top 50 (Very) Short Fictions.
To submit, please send 1-6 poems or 1-3 essays/short stories, all pasted into the body of a single e-mail message, to our editor:

Simultaneous submissions are accepted.
