SUBMIT NOW! The Masters Review Online Workshop is open from Aug 1 – Aug 31 and aims to connect emerging writers with experts in the field. Participants receive personalized
feedback on a story or essay, detailed suggestions for improvement, and
resources for submitting–all from an experienced instructor. The workshop allows writers to work with editors remotely and strives to provide a workshop experience that can easily fit into their lives. Get your story or essay publication ready!
Registration is limited and will close when spots are full. You can register without uploading a story, but we must receive your submission by August 31. All feedback to writers will be provided by the end of September. Just in time for fall submissions! More details here.

GUIDELINES:
We accept works of fiction and creative nonfiction less than 7000 words. All genres and all styles are welcome. We’re sorry to say we can only review a single story at a time. Please do not submit multiple stories in one file, even if it is below the max word count. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis. You can reserve your spot now, but when spaces are full we can no longer accommodate additional participants. For more details, visit our submission page.
