We believe in literature. We believe in the importance and magic of new writing. Letter Review is an online Literary Journal dedicated to publishing new work, and assisting writers with help to get published, performed, and produced. We feature interviews with professional writers, publish helpful information, run competitions with cash prizes, and remain open to unsolicited submissions of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. We pay writers professional rates. We seek submissions from writers who live anywhere in the world.
