Hobble Creek Review
Hobble Creek Review
About
It has been said by some that American poetry is in part, defined
by its sense of place.  Hobble Creek Review is a journal of
contemporary poetry and creative non-fiction which will attempt in
some fashion to highlight the concept of place.  By place, we mean
both physical geography and a state of mind.  Though we want to
focus on place, our goal is to publish quality writing regardless of
theme, and welcome poetry and creative non-fiction submissions,
regardless of location, school, or subject matter.

It is our goal to publish poetry, creative non-fiction (in the form of
memoir and travelogues) and essays about poetry and the writing
process.  It is unlikely we will ever be interested in publishing
fiction in any of its incarnations.  Please read our
submission
guidelines for each of these genres of writing before submitting.  
As we are new, it is a difficult thing to define our aesthetic because
we don't have any examples to show you.  As such, send us your
best work, and give us a chance to see if it is something we are
interested in sharing with a larger audience.

Here are a few links to some poems, creative non-fiction works,
and essays so you can get a sense of what we like:

The Importance of Missing the Mark by Kenneth Brewer
Two Poems by William Kloefkorn
Three Poems  by Dave Lee
Five poems by James Masao Mitsui
Two Poems by Katharine Coles
Report from Wyoming: Peripheral Vision by Kelly Madigan Erlandson
