It’s a great opportunity to any rookies who need a little support along the way. Authors with poetry, flash fictions, and short stories are accepted. The Absynthe Muse Review proudly boasts the beginning of its first print version which will be published bi-annually enabling the pay of contributors. Only electronic submissions will be accepted.
