Submission Guidleines

Writers of historical fiction are invited to submit their work to The Copperfield Review. New and unpublished writers are encouraged to submit their work. Questions and comments can be submitted to info(at)copperfieldreview.com.

Authors who would like to submit general fiction and book reviews should send their submissions to Blues Valley Review. You can check their submission guidelines here.

The Copperfield Review is a quarterly journal published in October, January, April, and July. Authors submitting their work can expect to hear from us regarding the status of their work during those months. We accept submissions 365 days a year.

We accept simultaneous and previously published submissions. We acquire one-time rights. We do not charge reading fees. At this time The Copperfield Review is not a paying market.

We do not accept submissions sent as file attachments. All submissions sent as file attachments will be deleted unread. Submissions must be pasted into the body of an e-mail and sent to info(at)copperfieldreview.com. Submissions that are too large to be sent in one e-mail must be divided into two clearly labeled e-mails. We will only consider submissions received via e-mail. Editors will not respond to submissions sent to their personal e-mail addresses. Please note that we have very tight spam controls on our e-mail box. Submissions that do not adhere to our guidelines are likely to be sent to the spam folder.

We reserve the right to edit the work we publish for length, content, and clarity.

Authors must notify us immediately if they need to remove their submission or if their work is accepted elsewhere while it is under consideration at The Copperfield Review.

We are unable to consider submissions that do not adhere to our guidelines.
