The Nassau Review 63

About

We welcome work that is innovative, captivating, well-crafted, and unique work that is traditional as well as pieces that cross boundaries of genre and tradition. New writers and seasoned writers are both welcome. All work must be in English. The Nassau Review’s volunteer editors, proofreaders, and technical support all work at Nassau Community College in Garden City, Long Island, NY. Our interns are current and former NCC students. We believe in supporting the artistic community and promoting good writing locally, nationally, and internationally.

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.
