Free State Review is a biannual literary journal published in print by Galileo Books and features drama, fiction, nonfiction, and poetry.[1] The journal is based in Aiken, South Carolina and ships issues nationally in the U.S. and internationally.[1] The journal allows simultaneous submissions but no reprints.[1] Contributors include but are not limited to Gerald Locklin, Ed Field, James Robison, Elizabeth Spires, Gary Fincke, and Robert Cooperman.[1] The editors are Barrett Warner, J. Wesley Clark, Robert Timberg.[2] They support their authors by reviewing their recent books in other publications and by organizing contributor readings in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. [1] Furthermore, the editors feature a different contributor poem or story each week on The Bubbler, the Free State Review blog, in the form of a traditional blog post or a stylized video recording.
Free State Review was founded in 2012 by Hal Burdett, J. Wesley Clark, and Barrett Warner.[3] Initially, submissions were generated by word of mouth until its website launched in 2013. The first issue, which came out in 2013, featured a painting by Pulitzer prize winning poet Mark Strand.[4] The journal's motto is "Totally Limited Omniscience".[5][6]
