The Cimarron Review
As I was going through my bookmarks, looking for things that I thought might be useful tools for writers, and I came across the notes I had scribbled down after reading The Cimarron Review. Published quarterly out of Oklahoma State University , each issue is approximately one hundred pages and features three or four short stories and about thirty or so poems. While a few stories have a slight supernatural or eerie bent, The Cimarron Review is mostly filled with stories of cultural exploration, conflicts with society, and “slice of life” vignettes. While my interests tend to lie more towards genre fiction, I’ve found it to be an excellent source of ideas. The Review also allows short story and poem submissions!
