Welcome to the Eckerd Review!
Eckerd Review welcomes fiction, nonfiction, poetry, hybrid writing, critical essays, and visual art from the Eckerd community. Current Students, Eckerd and PEL Alums, members of ASPEC and OLLI, staff, faculty, and trustees are all invited to submit work for consideration.
Our submissions are selected through an anonymous editorial process. We look for compelling content, technical accomplishment, and facility with language. We actively invite submissions from writers and artists from historically marginalized communities, including BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and individuals with disabilities.
Send us work you're proud of and excited to share with others and help us create a vibrant arts community on the Eckerd campus and beyond.
By pressing 'submit,' you agree to grant Eckerd Review first North American Serial Rights and to allow us to keep accepted pieces available in our virtual and print archives. Additionally, you agree to grant Eckerd Review non-exclusive reprint rights. Upon publication, all rights revert to you. You may resubmit the work elsewhere for publication with a note indicating Eckerd Review as first publisher of the work.
