Submissions





The BLR welcomes fiction, nonfiction, and poetry broadly and creatively related to our themes of health, healing, illness, the mind, and the body.  Submission guidelines


The annual Bellevue Literary Review Prizes award outstanding writing on these themes. The contest is open each year from February 1 - July 1. We are delighted to announce that this year's judges are Nathan Englander, Helen Benedict, and Tina Chang.



If you have submitted work but have not yet heard from us, your manuscript is still under consideration.  We appreciate your patience during review, but please feel free to check in for an update if it's been more than five months since you submitted: info@BLReview.org
