Walloon Writers Review

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (March 2026). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

Through the first decade since its founding in 2014, Walloon Writers Review has provided a safe harbor where writers and photographers celebrate the sights and sounds of Northern Michigan. Through fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry, and photography, contributors continue to highlight the river bends and hilltops, as well as all the places in between, that mark this region as eternal.
As Walloon Writers Review embarks on our second decade, we seek both to build on this strong foundation, while also reimagining how the landscape of Northern Michigan continues to inspire and to influence writers and photographers.
Walloon Writers Review is intended for a general audience, to be shared at the cottage, at camp, on the deck, or cabin bookshelf for all to enjoy. Our regional focus is on Northern Michigan, Michigan’s Upper Peninsula (and the islands in between).

Fees Notice: This project charges fees (or requires purchases) for all submissions, and they do not offer monetary payment for accepted submissions. (Note: About 8% of magazines always charge fees.)
The fee is USD $6 (above average for magazines that charge).
