Submit through Submittable only:

Upload your submission, 150 word(or less) third-person bio, and contact information to SUBMITTABLE: https://dragonpoetreview.submittable.com/submit.  Clearly state “(ISSUE – year) and Submission” in your subject line. This is a labor of love for the editors, outside of our regular day jobs, personal writing, and other family and community obligations. We do our best to reply to all submissions, and publication notices for the upcoming journal will be sent generally within six months (before the next publication cycle, which typically happens on the Winter and Summer Solstices).  If you do not hear back from us within that time frame, please feel free to drop us a “follow-up” email at dragonpoetreview@gmail.com. We welcome you to submit again, even if we do not use your work for our current issue.
