The Woodside Review

About

Founded and edited by Eleni Traganas, noted concert pianist, visual artist, author and synesthete, The Woodside Review is committed to presenting fine literary work that is evocative and captivating to our readers. We love well-crafted poetry and short fiction with a strong visual element that awakens our senses and leaves an indelible impression. We love poetry that is alive with color, taste, and inherent sound, short fiction that engages and transports us.

  • 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.
