February and March are busy times for BLUE HERON REVIEW! Here are some things on the horizon!

The Blue Heron Review Winter 2017 issue is due to be published online at the end of February or early March! (Please be patient, if our release date is the first week of March.) Stay tuned for some beautiful offerings of poetry and fine art photography! Read past issues of Blue Heron Review all year long, by visiting the archives page.

The next OPEN CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS for Blue Heron Review will be from March 20th through April 20th, 2017. THE HEALING ISSUE: As always, Blue Heron welcomes all meditative, reflective, and metaphysical poetry. For this issue, Blue Heron is looking specifically for poems about HEALING. This can take any form you wish: physical healing, emotional healing, spiritual healing, global healing, and the healing of our planet. (See the Submission Guidelines page for full details.)

The current Blue Heron Speaks Featured Author for the month of February is poet, Karissa Knox Sorrell, author of Evening Body (Finishing Line Press, 2016). Read 3 sample poems, and learn more about her work, on the BLUE HERON SPEAKS page. We will have a new, featured author in March. Can’t wait to share the news with you!

May your days be filled with creativity and inspiration. Put some goodness back into the world, with your words!
