Kelsey Review 2007

The Kelsey Review, Mercer County Community College's county-wide literary journal, appears in early September. Manuscripts are solicited each spring.

The journal welcomes stories, poetry, personal essays, pieces of novels, and line drawings. Fiction and essays should be limited to 5,000 words. Poetry should be limited to no more than six pieces. Material can be on any topic at all but should not have been previously published or be simultaneously submitted to other journals for their consideration. Send hard copies of written work only, no electronic submissions.

For art submissions, the editors ask that you send photocopies rather than originals. If your material is accepted, you will be asked to send the originals in for scanning, then they will be returned.

The deadline for all submissions is May 1. Submissions are limited to people who live, work, or give literary readings in Mercer County, NJ. Decisions on which material will be published are made by the five-person editorial board in June and July. Contributors will be notified by the second week of August as to whether their work has been accepted.

Send disposable copies of all materials with a cover letter to:

Ed Carmien and Holly-Katharine Mathews, editors,
The Kelsey Review
Liberal Arts Division
Mercer County Community College
P.O. Box B, Trenton, NJ 08690.

Please include a stamped, self-addressed envelope for reply.

Inquiries may be forwarded to kelsey.review@mccc.edu.
