Boudin The Online Home of The McNeese Review 26

A project of The McNeese Review

About

Boudin is hard to define. It’s got a sausage’s skin but the insides are all its own: a blend of rice, meat and spices unique to the one who made it. That blend is a closely guarded secret for the boudin maker—every war has been fought for less. What we’re looking for, at Boudin, is that unique mix in writing. We might not know exactly what it is or why we like it but we do know we like it. So please, submit your poetry, fiction, creative nonfiction—whatever. If you’re writing it, we want to read it. And we want others to read it too.

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.
