MAR is not presently open for submissions.

MAR publishes fiction, poetry, translations, and nonfiction (including personal essays, essays on writing, and short reviews)—There is NO reading fee for a regular submission, but our contests do require an entry fee. Contributing authors receive two complimentary copies of MAR. We encourage simultaneous submissions, but request immediate notification if the work is accepted elsewhere. We seek to acquire first rights for most works (excepting the original language of translated work) and First North American Serial Rights; all rights revert to the author upon publication. MAR does not consider work which has previously appeared elsewhere in print or online, for regular consideration or for its contests.

We do not accept work that has been generated, in whole or in part, by Artificial Intelligence (AI). If you have questions about the use of generated material within, for instance, a story about AI, or similar, please reach out to us at mar@bgsu.edu.
