About

Bloodstone Review is the brainchild of three colleagues who met during graduate school in the high desert of Arizona. Bloodstone Review seeks to publish emerging writers as well as old hands. We want the work of those whose craft is honed and gorgeous, grounded in beauty and style. Whatever that means and however it materializes. The editors of Bloodstone Review all have a strong connection to place. Bloodstone is a marriage of our ideas and philosophies relating to place. Blood represents place in our own bodies, our own personal spaces and how we are present in them. Stone represents the landscape around us, the world in which we live and interact. There also is an actual mineral called a bloodstone (also known as heliotrope) that has a beautiful legacy and philosophies of its own. Bloodstone Review is a new online journal with big aspirations. We read during the summer months, when many literary journals are closed to submissions, for our fall and spring issues. We work hard to create a solid, respectable journal that brings the highest quality of new writing to its audience. We hope that you join us for every issue and like what you see.
