About

TFR is a collaborative effort by poets and editors across the world to showcase the best new and emerging work that we happen to lay eyes upon. We welcome poetry, prose, and photography of all shapes and sizes (exact guidelines are included in the submit section) and on any topic, from your first love to your first war rally to your first visit to the chiropractor. We just want to know what’s on your mind. By “we,” we refer of course to ourselves, a diverse group of poets, writers, editors, and regular ol’ word lovers.
