The Conium Review needs a couple new fiction editors for the 2016 publication season. Our staff is volunteer-based (sorry, you’re doomed to be a stereotypical starving artist for the foreseeable future). The reading load involves at least ten submissions per week (and some individual submissions may contain more than one story).
If you’re interested in getting involved, read the details here and then shoot us an e-mail. Be sure to explain why you’re interested in editing for The Conium Review specifically. There are plenty of journals out there. So why us? Flattery will get you everywhere.
