r.kv.r.y. quarterly We look for a story to tell us something universal about the human condition. Just because our theme is "recovery" doesn't mean that all of what we publish is about successful recovery. Often it's not the recovery story that says the most about the process of recovering. We like work that shows heart and depth of character.	Poetry, Fiction, Creative Nonfiction	Yes	Yes	Jan 1 - Dec 31	Web

Red Fez Publications We obey no genre and take anything from limericks to fantasy to genres yet invented. Our key desires are originality, accessibility and quality. We like work with a point, something to say or some sort of inner majic that gives greater meaning to the pretty words and thrilling plots. That said, we're not really sure what we’re looking for until we've seen it, so give us a try. Published online monthly, Red Fez Publications features poetry and prose outside of the narrow, academic stream. Red Fez is committed to bringing light to underground and under-recognized writers and writing.	Poetry, Fiction, Creative Nonfiction	Yes	No	Jan 1 - Dec 31	Web

Relief: A Christian Literary Expression Our goal is to embrace real, gritty, painful, wonderful, this-side-of-heaven life.
