Flagship Publication
The Blue Mountain Review
A Southern publication — but we do not define the boundaries of that interpretation. That is up to you, the artist, to consider and reflect upon.
All submissions of poetry, prose, and photography/visual arts should be carefully thought-out and thoroughly edited. The Blue Mountain Review is published every two months.
