About

Dawn means renewal. Dawn means the erasure of boundaries. Founded by poet Ziyi Yan, The Dawn Review is an international literary magazine publishing striking, original work. Instead of adhering to restrictive notions of what makes "good literature," we promote written and visual work that truly surprises us, whether through new language, new ideas, or new forms. Our issues are not split into genres, because we believe that creative expression is most powerful without the constraint of categorization. We love pieces that show us the truth by refracting it– that not only meditate on lived experiences, but amplify them, and force us to reckon with with the full scale of our humanity. As part of this ethos, we accept submissions on all themes, from creatives of all ages and demographics.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
