Here is a small sampling from our recent Editor Interviews. We have interviewed over 2,250 editors.

Q: What other current publications (or publishers) do you admire most?

A: McSweeney's, Humor Me Magazine, The Onion

A: We really admire presses who are doing beautiful work with their books, from the design and marketing perspective. Presses like Copper Canyon and Black Lawrence Press choose and produce wonderful, beautiful books. We have also been watching small presses who thrive and put their hearts into the work they release, like Belle Point Press, River River Books, and Ghost Peach Press.

A: We value Harbor Reviews' work as well as that of publications and literary enterprises like Acropolis Journal & The Poetry Question for their inclusive work and thought provoking publication of poetry and, for the latter, reviews!

A: Well, we're a little biased, but we love Heart of Flesh Literary Journal--- this is our sister-site geared toward a more mature audience. Within literary magazine publications for teens and children, we are often inspired by how creative kids can be in magazines such as Stone Soup, and we aspire to be the Christian-version of Stone Soup one day.

A: The Southern Review, The Common, Salt Hill for aesthetics and production values, ONLYPOEMS, and many many more. In terms of publishers: Bull City Press, Black Lawrence Press, Alice James Books.

A: There are a few other cozy fantasy magazines out there that we like: Heartlines Spec, Wyngraf, and Tales & Feathers. We also really enjoy New Maps and Inner Worlds.

A: DIODE and 32 Poems

A: Frontier, Sad Girl Diaries, Luna Luna, Amethyst Review, Bitchin Kitsch, Toyon, Rattle, About Place
