About

Good Works Review (GWR) is a reincarnation of our now-defunct Kentucky Review but with more; that is, more genres of writing. Because the magazine’s parent press and its major board members relocated from Lexington, Kentucky to Athens, Georgia, it seemed appropriate to rebrand and consider what we wanted the new magazine to offer.

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.
