The Westchester Review publishes an annual print edition each spring. We now consider unpublished poems, stories, essays, and one-act plays by established and emerging writers wherever they reside. We will continue to spotlight Westchester authors in a dedicated folio every issue. Past contributors are welcome to submit again.
Before you submit, please make yourself familiar with the type of work we publish. You can purchase a previous issue directly from us, at an independent bookstore in Westchester, or through Amazon .
