About

The Coffee Ring Review is, above all else, a labor of love from the masthead to every writer preserving their creativity. We were founded in February 2023.
CRR is a space for the blooming creative. We see how hard you're working, and we know the struggle of consistent writing when life is piling on. Our aim is to make the publishing world more accessible by running a free-of-charge submission process that accepts simultaneous submissions and previously published work, and by offering feedback on all pieces.
