Editorial Focus

Modern Barbarian Press takes pride in publishing a little bit of everything. They look for original work in poetry, short prose, and flash fiction. At the moment, they’re particularly looking for chapbook length prose poetry (proems) manuscripts. They’re also interested in translations from works in the public domain. See their website for submission guidelines.

Tips From the Editor

We look for poetry with a distinctive voice. We are especially fond of vivid imagery and engaging stories.
